Paris on Top of Olympus!

Unstoppable, unbeatable, untouchable! By defeating the Greek Olympiakos (96-90), our Parisians secured their tenth consecutive victory in the EuroLeague, maintaining their position as the sole leaders of the competition.

On their assault of the Acropolis, Nadir Hifi (20 points) and his teammates claimed the scalp of the men in red on their home court during this 14th round of the EuroLeague. From the start, Kevarrius Hayes flexed his muscles in the paint, dominating on both ends of the court. T.J. Shorts (21 points, 8 assists) quickly showed the Greek crowd why he was named MVP of November with an early 12 points.

Following coach Tiago Splitter’s game plan to perfection, the team capitalized on fast-paced play, throwing the opposing defense into disarray. With their trademark spectacular basketball, our players quickly took control of the match. Thanks to the aggression of Collin Malcolm and Tyson Ward, we led at halftime (49-44).

Evan Fournier Showcases His Talent

In the second half, Maodo Lô and Yakuba Ouattara used their experience to extend our lead, while Nadir silenced the crowd with his three-point shooting. Securing crucial second-chance points with 15 offensive rebounds, we further widened the gap heading into the final quarter (73-60).

Led by a red-hot Evan Fournier, the home team fought back to level the game, making for a nerve-wracking finish. Despite their rally, it was our German world champion who delivered the cold blow in the Peace and Friendship Stadium with a massive three-pointer followed by two clutch free throws to seal the game (96-90).
