On the back of a thrilling and heroic road win at London last week, Hamburg (2-9) will aim to cause another shock with a trip to Group A leader Paris (10-1), which by tipoff will know if it can secure a playoff berth with a win.
Game Notes and Facts: Paris vs. Hamburg
2023-24
3 Mins read
If Wolves lose earlier in the day, Paris is through to the next stage with a victory. Paris enjoyed a 69-105 rout when the teams faced off in October, based on inside dominance with a whopping 33 two-point shots converted on 50 attempts. Tyson Ward is one of the many frontcourt weapons for the French team; he was 7-of-7 from two-point range in last week’s win over Reyer and Hamburg will need a heroic effort from the likes of Aleksander Dziewa to have any chance of a road upset.
