Milan De Clercq carved through Royal IV Brussels' defense with surgical precision, finishing 17 points on 6-for-8 shooting—including 3-for-5 from three—in just 20 minutes as Gent-Oost Eagles secured a 10-point home win, 85–75, in Group A play. The efficiency was striking: De Clercq didn't miss from the line (2-for-2) and committed only two turnovers in his half-court stint. He did the scoring work without needing to dominate the glass or playmaking (1 rebound, 1 assist), letting his shooting accuracy carry the load when Gent-Oost needed to build separation. Royal IV Brussels stayed within striking distance for stretches but couldn't match the Eagles' offensive spacing and precision. De Clercq's three-point stroke—a threat Brussels had to respect—opened driving lanes and kept the offense flowing in a controlled performance rather than a track meet. Next up: Gent-Oost Eagles continue their Group A campaign.
