\n\u201cThis was a bad game by us,\u201d Maccabi Tel Aviv Head Coach Oded Katash said. \u201cThe game was decided in the first quarter and we had no energy. It\u2019s never easy to play a double week and we started off very confused and turned over the ball. We just weren\u2019t there and then our poor body language showed our frustrations.\u201d<\/p>\n

“We knew we had to start strong and one of the keys was rebounding, avoid Blatt’s 3-point shots and stop their transition,” Paris Head Coach Tiago Spliter said. “For the most part the teams was concentrated on both ends and we got the win. Maccabi put a lot of pressure on Shorts but we was able to find his teammates which he did by picking uo so many assists.”<\/p>\n

Marial Shayok started the game off with a pair of points off the baseline for Maccabi Tel Aviv while Michael Jantunen went from deep, Kevarrius Hayes, Collin Malcolm, Tyson Ward and TJ Shorts all scored to give Paris a 12-2 lead midway through the first quarter. Jaylen Hoard dunked, Nadir Hifi and Tamir Blatt traded triples, Yakuba Ouattara scored as Ward and Malcolm both dialed up log distance to give the host a 26-11 lead after ten minutes of play.

Shayok went for a pair from deep, Jokubatis hit an off balance jumper, Hifi dialed up from long distance, Ward and Roman Sorkin traded baskets but Malcolm scored from beyond the arc to bump the Paris advantage up to 49-33 at halftime.<\/p>\n

Jantunen continued to be the Paris player to open up a quarter with points, Ward added a deuce, Randolph hit a midrange jumper, Blatt also scored from inside the paint, while Shorts and Randolph traded baskets but a Hifi triple gave Paris a 62-43 lead midway through the third quarter. Hoard and Sorkin cut into the lead, but Shorts, Malcolm and Ward bumped the lead up to 72-56 after thirty minutes of action.
