Paris Basketball: 1st spot of the regular season in the French Domestic League

A small French basketball update: Paris Basketball had a really up-and-down season, 12 players left/traded/bought out after last season.

We didn’t make the Euroleague playoffs and in the domestic league we kept showing up against big teams but struggling against smaller ones.

Today was the last “match day” and we were 3rd in the league. Coming into this, anyone from 1st (Monaco) through 4th could’ve snatched the first place, and finish on top of the regular season before the play-ins next week.

We won, tonight, against Tony Parker’s ASVEL (87-76), and our rivals lost, therefore ensuring 1st place and homecourt advantage. LFG!

First run since the my injury (lower leg muscle tear) and the weather lately has made it difficult to find a suitable time and opportunity.

Glad I could get back to it and at almost a regular pace too!

🏀🏀🏀 And while we’re on topic, my #ParisBasketball team beat a depleted Monaco team.

All to play for next week in the final game of the regular season, with a chance to seed higher ahead of the #LNB #BetclicElite playoffs!

Your favorite French Washington Wizards fan, just here to say: WE ARE SO BACK! #NBA #DraftLottery

The Wizards with the first pick at this year’s draft lottery, and (I would assume) AJ Dybantsa.

As a fan who’s suffered basically ever since John Wall’s injuries derailed a few things circa 2019, it’s been a long time overdue for a little luck on our side!

Finished reading: Why We Love Baseball by Joe Posnanski 📚⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As a recent fan of Baseball (I binged Ken Burn’s Baseball documentary series during COVID Lockdown, and that was what really (re-)introduced me to Baseball) this was a really fun read!

Now to watch the YouTube playlist with all these iconic moments!
