The backcourt duo combined for 50 points in the home win against the Basque side.
Paris Basketball arrived in the EuroLeague a year ago and since then, its frenetic style of play has caused headaches for many coaches in the competition. Despite the departure of head coach Tiago Splitter and the rebuilding the team underwent after losing its backbone last summer, Paris has returned as strong as ever this term, boasting the offensive talent many teams would be jealous of. And at the center of this Paris 2.0 sit two guards who have what it takes to make the difference game in, game out.
Nadir Hifi and Justin Robinson combined for 50 points, nearly half of their team’s tally, as Paris defeated Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz 105-87 on Wednesday night. More importantly, what made them so tough to contain is the fact that one gives his place to the other, with one of the two always being on the floor throughout the 40 minutes.
Coming into the game as the league’s top scorer with 21.3 points per game, Hifi had a slow start to the duel, going scoreless before giving the mantle to Robinson. The latter came off the bench to score 5 straight points before being subbed off for Hifi midway through the first quarter. The French guard rediscovered his spark, netting 8 points including three straight midrange jumpers, as Paris secured a 30-21 lead after 10 minutes.
Hifi became the first player to take his tally to double digits by scoring a bucket 2 and a half minutes into the second quarter. He headed to the bench, as Robinson returned to the floor and nailed back-to-back triples, with Paris leading 51-47 at halftime. The two guards bagged 8 points apiece in the third, as Paris took a 79-71 cushion into the closing quarter.
