Windrose Giants Antwerp beat House of Talents Spurs Kortrijk 113–106 behind Vincent Kesteloot's 21
Windrose Giants Antwerp needed overtime to get past House of Talents Spurs Kortrijk in a back-and-forth BNXT League regular season contest. Regulation ended deadlocked at 84-84 after Kortrijk outscored Antwerp 23-19 in the fourth, erasing what had been a four-point cushion at the start of the quarter. The Giants had built their largest lead early in the third, then held a narrow 65-61 advantage heading into the final period. Vincent Kesteloot steadied them down the stretch with 21 points on 8/12 shooting, while Nijel Pack added 20 points and 7 assists. Enoch Cheeks logged a double-double — 18 points, 12 rebounds — and anchored the glass and defense with 4 steals and 3 blocks, though his 5/14 shot troubled him. Kortrijk matched that intensity through both stars: Anthony James Smith Jr finished 20 points on 5/9 threes, while Jamarii D'Aje Johnson-Thomas also posted 20 with an efficient 9/9 from the line alongside 8 assists. That balance kept them in it. Antwerp seized control in overtime, outscoring Kortrijk 29-22 to close out the 113-106 win. Antwerp visit Heroes Den Bosch on Saturday; Kortrijk travel to AB InBev Leuven Bears the same day.
