Antoine Malliar vs Yannick Desiron: the duel that could decide United Basket Woluwe–Kontich Wolves
Malliar and Desiron—two scorers in full flight, set to collide in Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe. Antoine Malliar has been the engine for United Basket Woluwe's recent push, averaging 20.6 points per game with a TIB Efficiency rating of 65.4. He's orchestrating at 1.5 assists per game too, which marks him as more than a volume scorer—a creator who keeps the offence ticking. Yannick Desiron comes in sharper on the scoreboard: 21.2 PPG for Kontich Wolves, efficiency at 63.2, though his playmaking load sits lighter at 0.9 APG. The margin between them is narrow, and on nights like these it often comes down to rhythm and read. Kontich will need Desiron to sustain his recent form if they're to slow Malliar's influence on both ends. United Basket Woluwe, meanwhile, know that when Malliar gets into rhythm early, it opens space for everything else around him. The visitors have the scoring punch; the hosts have the home court and a man in genuine form. Tip-off in three hours. Watch it unfold.
