Tyson Ward played a key role in Paris’ impressive run in the club’s maiden EuroLeague campaign with averages of 11.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game while shooting 58.9% from the field and 33.2% from beyond the arc.
The versatile forward spent the last two seasons with Paris Basketball, winning the EuroCup title in 2024 as well as the French Basket League title and the French Cup in straight seasons (2024, 2025).
He will now become rivals with former teammate TJ Shorts, who left the Parisiens as well and signed a two-year deal with Panathinaikos.
