ASVEL absolutely torched Roanne 96-77 in Round 3 of the Betclic Elite, with Tony Parker’s squad finally getting the better of his younger brother TJ’s team. This wasn’t just any win, either. It was a statement, a full-on revenge game that had been brewing since the French SuperCup semifinals.
Revenge Served Cold
This wasn’t the first time these two brothers faced off with Tony at the helm for ASVEL. Roanne had already spoiled Tony’s debut as head coach, taking him down in the French SuperCup semifinal. That loss clearly stuck, because ASVEL came out on October 11, 2026, with something to prove. They didn’t just win; they dominated, avenging that earlier defeat and making sure this latest meeting between the Parker brothers went Tony’s way.
Waters Leads the Charge
While the story was all about the Parker brothers’ rivalry, Tremont Waters was the one leading the charge on the court for ASVEL. The dude put up an impressive 18 points, dished out six assists, and swiped two steals. He was everywhere, making plays and ensuring ASVEL ran away with this one.
Tony Parker walked off the court with the bragging rights this time. His team secured a decisive victory, putting that SuperCup semifinal loss firmly in the rearview mirror.
