Quinten Smout finished with 13 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists as Gembo Borgerhout held off Hasselt BT 73–67 at home in Group A play. The Borgerhout guard was efficient from distance, hitting 3 of 8 three-pointers and converting all 4 free throws in 38 minutes. His ball movement kept the offence ticking even when his shot wasn't falling consistently — he was 3 of 9 overall from the field — and he managed the game without forcing turnovers into a difficult second half. Smout's steadiness proved the difference in a six-point win that stayed competitive throughout. Gembo Borgerhout edges toward the latter rounds of group play with a performance that leaned on depth and discipline rather than a single breakout display.
