In Istanbul, the Parisians came away with a precious victory over Besiktas (95-72). A victory that validates their home advantage until a possible final. Whatever happens, Paris will have the best record in the Eurocup this season!
The match
Having lost the first leg at Carpentier, Tuomas Iisalo’s players adjusted accordingly. Despite a hard-fought first quarter, Paris took the lead in the second (43-37 at half-time) and never looked back. The second half was full of determination and highlights, particularly for our inside players, who completed some fine aerial actions.
TJ Shorts keeps up the momentum
A complete game for the competition’s best passer, who compiled 23 points including a magnificent 3/4 3-pointer, 5 rebounds and 6 assists (rating of 34). Will TJ soon be back-to-back MVP?
