Paris returned to victory this Monday in Betclic Elite, beating Limoges at the Adidas Arena (96-88). The capital club temporarily moves up to second position near Asvel.
The final day of Betclic Elite of the year started this Monday at the Adidas Arena where Paris quickly had to remobilize the day after its defeat at Asvel. Against the CSP, the capital club suffered a lot before better controlling the third as well as the last quarter, to finally win 96-88. A highly symbolic success because in addition to temporarily returning to Asvel in second position, Tiago Splitter's men broke their streak of four consecutive defeats all competitions combined.
Extraordinary in the third quarter, Nadir Hifi (13 points) guided Paris in its comeback mission (40-45, half-time). However, the prize of the day goes to the American Tyson Ward who broke his career record (30 points, 8 rebounds)author, among other things, of seven long-distance shots. For his part, TJ Shorts came close to a double-double, producing an excellent performance punctuated by 26 units and 9 assists. Opposite, Nicolas Lang once again demonstrated his skillful qualities (18 points, 3 rebounds). In vain, however.
Paris on deck in the Euroleague
In the ranking, Limoges logically stagnates in 13th place following this fourth defeat in a row in the championship. The resumption will take place on January 12 against Le Portel for the residents of Beaublanc. Paris, for its part, is not yet finished this year because a final meeting in the Euroleague awaits them this Friday with the Spaniards of Baskonia. The return of the Parisians to the Adidas Arena will take place on January 3, still in the European Cup, against Barça.
