Seppe D'espallier carried Basket Willebroek through a two-point thriller, finishing with 18 points, 11 rebounds and 5 steals across 38 minutes as the hosts held off Basket SKT Ieper 109–107 in Top Division Men 1 play. D'espallier shot efficiently from the floor (6/12 FG, 6/7 FT) and did his work on both ends, forcing turnovers and controlling the glass in a game decided by the thinnest margin. He took on heavy minutes and the workload showed—three turnovers and four fouls—but his two-way impact proved decisive when Basket Willebroek needed it most. Ieper kept it tight throughout, but in a game this close, one player's consistency at both ends often tips the scale. D'espallier did exactly that.
