with Paris, Léopold Cavalière challenges Barcelona, his family’s favorite club (Euroleague)
If almost all of his teammates discover the Palau on Friday, the world bronze medalist in 3×3 Basketball had set foot there well before the birth of Paris Basketball and then its resounding entry into the Euroleague with five victories in a row, a series in progress. “I was on my third year internship in 2010 and on one of the days, my father said to me “You’re not going, we’re going to go see Barcelona-Panathinaikos”. We had skipped the training to see Barça win (83-71), and I was seduced by Juan Carlos Navarro, this guy’s aura, his efficiency, his reading of the game”, Cavalière continues, going through her photo archives on her phone.
