Tyson Etienne: “ I’m a leader, a winner ”

After racking up shot after shot during his first high-intensity training session at the club, Tyson Etienne spoke to us about himself both on and off the court : “ I’m a hard worker. I’m a leader, a winner. Someone who loves basketball and is passionate about seeing just how great this sport can be. And off the court, I love art, good music, cooking and fashion. ”

“ I’m really excited to be in Paris, ” he continues, speaking about his debut in the capital : “ That first day of training was incredible. I’m delighted to be out on the pitch with the lads and the coaches, and to be working hard. The road to victory starts today. We’re going to keep improving day by day so we’re ready for the season. It’s thrilling. ”

This move to Paris Basketball also marks his first experience of European basketball, which he is keen to discover : “ I’m really excited at the prospect of playing in Europe. The standard of basketball here is very high, particularly in terms of tactics and strategy. I’m thrilled at the prospect of learning, taking on board new knowledge and gaining first-hand experience of the European game. What’s more, I’m delighted to be able to wear the colours of Paris. ”

Finally, our number 9 would like to give you a heads-up: “ Honestly, fans, get ready. Get ready for an unforgettable season for Paris Basketball, for the city of Paris and for everyone who supports us, even from far away from the capital. I’m absolutely thrilled. ”
