Joel Koung Poute's 23 not enough as Windrose Giants Antwerp fall to Basics Melsele-Beveren

Joel Kevin Koung Poute carried Windrose Giants Antwerp B for 33 minutes, posting 23 points on efficient 8-of-13 shooting (4 for 6 from three) to go with 5 assists and 3 steals. It was not enough. Basics Melsele-Beveren held firm at home, prevailing 101–91 and leaving the Giants with a 10-point deficit that proved too steep to close. Koung Poute's accuracy—he also made 3 of 4 free throws—was the one clean thread in an otherwise unraveling evening for the away side. His playmaking kept Antwerp B in sight through the middle stretches, yet Melsele-Beveren's depth and control in the final quarter pulled the hosts clear. Two turnovers and three fouls in 33 minutes suggested a player who worked hard within limited margin for error. The loss stings because Koung Poute's performance deserved a better collective effort. Windrose Giants Antwerp B will look to bounce back in their next fixture.
