A real test awaits SIG Strasbourg this Sunday, November 17 at 7 p.m. for the 9th championship day, at the Adidas Arena. Opposed to Paris Basketball, a team which is playing in the EuroLeague this season, Laurent Vila’s men will have to surpass themselves to hope to leave the capital with victory. After the home defeat against Le Portel, it is time to bounce back, and this trip is the ideal opportunity to prove that SIG Strasbourg has the necessary resources to compete with the best teams in the championship.
95… like the number of points scored on average by Paris Basketball this season
With 95.3 points scored on average this season, Paris Basketball is quite simply the best attack in the championship. Apart from Asvel (91.9), no team passes the 90 points mark, which shows the difference between the capital club and the competition. With its up-tempo game, the Parisians opt more for an “NBA” style which contrasts completely with the game we are used to seeing on the Old Continent. Many teams have not found answers… To control the offensive aspect, it is a mountain that SIG Strasbourg will have to climb. For the attack by Splitter’s men, there are multiple solutions. Nadir Hifi is one of Betclic Elite’s elite scorers with 20.6 points per game. This match is always special for him, playing against his hometown. TJ Shorts will also be one to watch like milk on the fire. In the wings too, Paris also has players capable of fueling the score with Collin Malcolm (13.3 points on average) and Tyson Ward (12 points per game). In order not to leak and hope to create a feat, SIG Strasbourg will have to limit all these beautiful people as much as possible.
