Bryan Pamba-Juille, Tiegbe Bamba and David Gassaud will play in the Pro B basketball championship in France next season. It follows the impressive victory of their team, Rouen-Métropole Basket, over Chartres in the National 1 final (93-79).
Tiegbe Bamba and Bryan Pamba-Juille did not play in the decisive final against Chartres, but David Gassaud joined the celebrations, having hit a three-pointer. It is a lovely story for the 2-metre Ivorian player, who came through all the ranks at the Normandy club. Bryan Pamba and Tiegbe Bamba, who are in their first season with the club, are just as delighted as their compatriot about the promotion.
