For Paris, Nadir Hifi scored 19 points, Jared Rhoden had 17, and Lamar Stevens added 11.
Although Paris started the match better and took an early lead (11-3), Monaco quickly turned things in their favor, took the lead, and did not relinquish it until the end. Francesco Tabellini’s team managed to tie the game in the middle of the third quarter (59-59), but at that moment, the visitors pulled away again, maintained the lead, and ultimately secured the victory without any drama.
Monaco is at the top of the EuroLeague standings with a 15-7 record, and in the next round, Vassilis Spanoulis’ team will host Crvena Zvezda. On the other hand, Paris has seven wins and 14 losses, and they will visit Valencia in the next round.
