After a hard-fought game against Saint-Quentin in Saint-Chamond, Paris Basketball won 71-67 on Friday evening in the Leaders Cup quarter-finals and will face Monaco this Saturday evening in the semi-finals.
The match
As with their other two wins this season against their opponents, the Parisians struggled to overcome the SQBB. But thanks to their collective spirit, Coach Tuomas Iisalo’s team will be looking forward to the next round.
With 4 players over 10 points (Ward and Shorts 15, Jantunen 14 and Herrera 11), Paris Basketball were able to count on threats from all sides, despite the absences of Collin Malcolm and Enzo Shahrvin.
On s’est fait peur mais… ON EST EN DEMI-FINALE 😤
Au terme d’un match très disputé, très physique, Paris s’impose et jouera la Roca Team demain soir en 1/2 finale de la Leaders Cup 💪
Bravo et bonne fin de saison à nos amis du @SQBB_Officiel 🙌 pic.twitter.com/tg6zi13Nm6
