Donar Groningen edge AB InBev Leuven Bears 81–78 in a nail-biter
Jonas Visser has been the engine of AB InBev Leuven Bears' recent run, posting a 72.5 TIB efficiency rating with 20 points per game — the kind of consistency that wins close ones in the BNXT League. Kevon Godwin brings a different profile for Donar Groningen: 60.3 efficiency, 19 points and the ball in his hands at 3.5 assists per game, a playmaker as much as a scorer. What makes this matchup sharp is the gap in approach. Visser is a finisher, high-volume and direct. Godwin has to run the offense through half-court sets and find cutters; he'll be hunting rhythm on the perimeter while also managing the tempo. Leuven Bears will want Visser to attack early and often. Groningen needs Godwin's court vision to open driving lanes and spacing. Both are in form — that's what the recent numbers tell you — and tonight one of them will have tipped the balance when the final buzzer sounds. Tip-off in roughly three hours.
