A new victory and an entry in the top 10. Despite a difficult start in this Euroleague with two opening defeats, the Paris Basketball players prove match after match that they have the level of the very best European clubs. This Friday, it was the Spaniards from Baskonia Vitoria who paid the price at the Adidas Arena in Paris (67-65).

Thanks to this third success in a row after those in Monaco and Berlin, the Parisians now have a positive record of four victories for three defeats, which places them in a position of candidate for the play-offs in 6th place, tied with their evening opponents, but also Olympiakos, Anadolu Efes and Monaco.
The French champions, for their part, lost in Lithuania against Kaunas (63-62). As for Asvel, already beaten on Wednesday in Athens by Panathinaikos (92-68), it concedes its third consecutive defeat on the European scene and remains at the bottom of the ranking.
