Villeurbanne beat Le Mans (112-71) and Paris Basket dominated Le Portel (66-101) on Wednesday for the 3rd day of Betclic Elite.
Paris Basket and Asvel crushed Le Mans at home (112-71) and Le Portel (101-66) on home soil to sign a third victory in three days of Elite basketball on Wednesday, like Monaco the day before.
The Villeurbannais prepared well for the championship clash against ASM on Sunday, by taking a walk outside after a sluggish success at Gravelines-Dunkerque (79-74).
A success already in the bag at the end of the first period (58-36), during which Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot stood out (16 pts), before leaving the spotlight after the break to another rookie, Frank Jackson (22 pts at 8/11 shooting including 5/7 at 3 pts).
Tuomas Iisalo s’acclimate bien
Paris also did not hold back and confirmed the transfer of Tuomas Iisalo, the Finnish coach who arrived from Bonn in the off-season.
With in his luggage the little leader TJ Shorts (1.75 m), who put the Sarthois through hell (25 pts and 4 assists in 22 minutes), drowned in a rain of winning shots (16/32 including 3 /4 for Shorts).
Neighbor of the Parisians, the reigning vice-champion Boulogne-Levallois, dismembered in the off-season, is still without a victory after another defeat, at home against Limoges (90-67).
The Mets 92 collapsed in the second half (38-30 at half-time) against the CSP, which has a second away success after that gleaned in Strasbourg (87-80).
They are at the bottom of the ranking with Le Portel, Dijon and Gravelines-Dunkerque, defeated for the second time in a row at home, by the promoted Chalon-sur-Saône (83-81) and its gunners Antoine Eïto and Aleksej Nikolic (40 pts at 10/16 long distance between them).
