The French basketball team won its second World Cup preparation match on Wednesday once morest Montenegro (80-69). Hardly, however, despite Evan Fournier’s 20 points.
Two days following its victory might not be easier once morest Tunisia (93-36), the French basketball team played this Wednesday its second preparatory meeting before the World Cup. Faced with an opponent of a completely different caliber, the Blues experienced a very solid resistance preventing them from breaking away from the score. We had to wait for the second part of the 4th and final quarter to see Vincent Collet’s men establish a comfortable lead over the Montenegrins. And finally win by more than ten points (80-69).
The Blues are gaining momentum ????

Top scorer of the game, Evan Fournier reached the bar of 20 points, accompanied by 4 rebounds and 2 assists. The winger was assisted by his pivot Rudy Gobert, author of 16 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists. The big guy of 2m16 from the Minnesota Timberwolves therefore came close to the double-double unlike the Montenegrin star Nilola Vucevic. The Chicago Bulls player for his part split 11 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists. Only Nikola Ivanovic did better than him in terms of baskets in the opposing ranks (12 points).
Like Sylvain Francisco, stirring, but above all convincing by his energy and his 6 points, the Blues are gaining momentum 23 days before their debut at the World Cup once morest Canada. Place in five days in a new friendly meeting once morest Venezuela before a double confrontation once morest Lithuania.
