Games of the week

Published on February 16, 2026

It’s going to be a special week for our Parisian team. From Friday to Sunday, the Leaders Cup will be taking place. Paris Basketball will be making its debut this Friday against JL.

The Leaders Cup is back! Two years after winning the title, Paris will head to the Futuroscope arena to face the best teams from the first half of the championship. It’s a knockout tournament where there are no free passes. The format is as simple as it is physically demanding: quarterfinals on Friday, semifinals on Saturday, and the final on Sunday.

Three days of intense competition will kick off with a classic match for our team against Bourg-en-Bresse this Friday at 9 p.m. With 10 consecutive wins against Jeremiah Hill’s team, our Parisians have been JL’s nemesis for several seasons. This rematch of the last Betclic ÉLITE semifinals promises to be a heated battle. Paris Basketball is coming off an XXL week with victories in Barcelona and Saint-Quentin, while Bourg-en-Bresse is currently tied for first place in its EuroCup group.

If they qualify, our players will face Nanterre or Le Mans the following day at 9 p.m. The final will be held on Sunday at 7 p.m.

Paris Basketball will bring you all the latest news directly on its social media channels. And to watch the Leaders Cup, tune in to DAZN with a few games on L’Équipe, including our quarterfinal.
