Paris holds its own against Venice

Published on February 5, 2024

The milestone of 10 victories is reached in the Eurocup! A milestone reached in just 11 games after a 100-70 victory in front of the Parisian public on Tuesday.

Venice held out for 14 minutes before being overwhelmed by the home side’s pressure. After a hard-fought first quarter, TJ Shorts and his team-mates raised their game to assume their status as one of the competition’s top teams. After a split quarter, Paris never relinquished the lead, and their domination was more than pleasing!

Paris exceeded their standards

30-point lead, 100 points scored and 70 conceded. Paris took care of those stats. Winning is good, but doing it the right way is even better!

JOB DONE 💯🫡
