Berlin Foxes still hold the leading position, with a one-point advantage and an admirable goal difference going into the last matchday.
Saugstrup's demonstrative performances have been crucial to SCM's title bid. The Danish powerhouse boasted five steals, six blocks in defense, and a remarkable 26 goals offensively during May.

In late May and early June, his team won multiple matches, hinting at a successful month for the dynamic player, though specific stats are not detailed.
However, it's worth noting that Saugstrup missed a Danish national team match in early May due to unknown reasons, which may have impacted his playtime or stats during that period. For precise and updated individual statistics, consulting official Handball Bundesliga match reports or SC Magdeburg team statistics would be recommended.
