Aleksandar Nikolov breathes down Regers' neck in the battle for top scorer

The race for the top spot among scorers in the Regular Season is now taking on the character of a true duel. Belgian Ferre Reggers was the sole leader for a long time, but recently he has been feeling the increasingly palpable presence of Aleksandar Nikolov behind him, who, with a series of strong matches, has come dangerously close to the top.

Reggers continues to lead the standings with 178 points, but the Bulgarian star is only nine behind him 169 points. The difference is minimal in the context of the remaining matches and Nikolov's current form. If he continues at the same pace, the clash for the top position will be one of the most intriguing individual battles in the championship.

After them, but at a greater distance, are Wassim Ben Tara (156 pts), Nathan Farrell (152 pts), and Noumory Keita (150 pts), who complete the top 5 scorers.

The data clearly shows that the leading pack is significantly narrowing. The nine-point difference between Reggers and Nikolov is completely surmountable within a single strong match, especially given the aggressive style and high attacking efficiency of the Bulgarian. At the same time, the second group Ben Tara, Farrell, and Keita remains competitive but is now lagging behind the leading duo. A race is emerging where psychological resilience and consistency will be decisive for the final victory.
