Belgium U16 edge Slovenia U16 85–82 in a nail-biter

Zagdoud carries 55.4 TIB Efficiency into the Slovenia matchup tonight — 19.6 points and 5.2 assists per game lighting up our youngsters' offense. But he'll face a Blazic in sharper form: the Slovenian guard sits at 57.6 efficiency, averaging 15 points with the kind of court vision that's made him the quieter architect in their attack. This is the duel that decides tempo. Zagdoud thrives in space, running the pick-and-roll and finding cutters; Blazic moves fewer bodies but runs tighter sets. Neither is a shot-volume scorer — both operate as primary facilitators first — which means the game hinges on who controls the rhythm and forces the other into isolation ball. Belgium U16 and Slovenia U16 tip off in Oradea in roughly three hours. Our young Lions have the offensive artillery, but Blazic's efficiency rating suggests Slovenia won't roll over. Worth your attention.
