Excitement buzzes in Paris as the Cleveland Cavaliers (21-15) prepare to clash with the Brooklyn Nets in the NBA Paris Game 2024. Donovan Mitchell, Cavaliers’ star, shared a video in front of the iconic Eiffel Tower, expressing his anticipation for the game.

“What up y’all? Donovan Mitchell here. We’re at the Eiffel Tower. Excited to play here in Paris, excited to get the game going. But this is dope. We are here at this monument, man. It’s great here with the whole gang, the whole crew. Make sure y’all catch us on Thursday,” Mitchell, who is averaging 27.2 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.7 assists in 35.7 minutes per game, said.

The Cavaliers arrive in Paris with a three-game winning streak. On the other hand, the Nets (16-21) face a challenging stretch, securing only three wins in their last 14 games.

With the Cavaliers positioned strongly in the fifth spot in the Eastern Conference, the Nets, currently ninth, see the Parisian encounter as an opportunity to make significant moves in the conference standings.

The NBA Paris Game 2024, a test of skill and a crucial juncture for both teams, is scheduled for 2:00 pm/ET on January 11.
