Plamedi Ngolo Masaka made the most of his 20 minutes on the floor for Royal Nivelles Basketball, finishing with 14 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block on an efficient 5-of-6 shooting (3-of-3 from three-point range). His only blemish was a 1-of-8 night at the free-throw line, but it barely mattered in a blowout. Royal Nivelles dismantled Union BC Quaregnon 77–51 at home in Group A, a 26-point margin that tells its own story. Masaka's clean shooting—especially his three-point accuracy—anchored a dominant performance that made Quaregnon's visit to Salle Omnisports Parc de la Dodaine a one-sided affair. The efficiency was the takeaway here: six shot attempts, five made buckets, eight boards in two-thirds of a game. That kind of return on possessions is exactly what separates a routine win from a statement one in the Top Division.
