Maxime Lef\u00e8vre celebrated Paris Basketball\u2019s 111-109 overtime victory over Fenerbahce, decided by Nadir Hifi\u2019s buzzer-beater after a difficult shooting night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI loved the resilience of my players,\u201d the French coach said. \u201cWe were down four in overtime, but we kept fighting and made some huge shots. We found a way to win even when the game wasn\u2019t pretty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Hifi, who had struggled before hitting the game-winner: \u201cHe had missed a lot of shots and was still trying to find his rhythm after the injury. He found it with three seconds left, but it\u2019s never too late.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lef\u00e8vre never considered taking the responsibility away from him: \u201cI trusted him because I\u2019ve already seen him make shots like that. He\u2019s a player who never really loses confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And on an emotional night at the Accor Arena: \u201cThere are too many emotions. I\u2019m supposed to sleep, but I think that\u2019s impossible tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
