After moving from Telekom Baskets Bonn, where he was named Basketball Champions League Regular Season and Final Four MVP, to Paris Basketball, everybody was expecting TJ Shorts to do well.
But what the American-North Macedonian guard has been able to accomplish in the past two years is nothing but exceptional.
Continuing to deliver night in and night out, he was named once again MVP of the Regular Season in the French League, in back-to-back fashion.

Spending 24 games on the court this season, TJ Shorts has been averaging 16.9 points and 8.0 assists per game, shooting 59.1% from two-point range and 38.7% from beyond the arc.
Helping Tiago Splitter’s team stand in first position with a 22-7 record, tied with ASVEL and ahead of both Monaco (22-6) and Cholet (20-9), he was the absolute leader for the French capital’s club. However, he has been delivering in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague too.
In his first rookie season in the EuroLeague, he was inserted into the All-EuroLeague First Team and pushed Paris all the way to the Playoffs. He averaged 19.0 points and 7.3 assists per game.
