They will play in Latvia but against Georgia, not against Latvia.
It will be interesting to see if Sanikidze will play in this game.
Parker and Diawara uncertain, waiting for insurance do ents from NBA.

Basket - Bleus - La victoire avec Parker
Il n'y avait que des bonnes nouvelles lundi en Lettonie. L'équipe de France a gagné son troisième match d'affilée, une large victoire face à la Georgie (90-69) lors de la première journée du tournoi de Riga, et elle a incoporé Yakhouba Diawara et Tony Parker, autorisés à revêtir le maillot tricolore. Les premiers chiffres donnés laissent à penser que les deux joueurs NBA sont en forme. "TP" a été le deuxième marqueur des Bleus (12 points, 5 passes), ex aequo avec Ronny Turiaf, derrière Nando De Colo (13) et le "Yak" a marqué 10 points en huit minutes.

theres the elusive sanikidze
This is not Parker, it's William Gradit.

so how did Sanikidze do?
He bears a striking resemblence to the guy who won gold in the Decathalon for the U.S.
Minus the ink.
60 % on shooting (44% beyond the arc) for Tony.

It's 4/10 FG, 0/4 3FG, 4/5 FT for Parker on L'Equipe's boxscore.
Sanikidze played 29 min, scored 5 points (2/4Fg, 1/3 3FG) and grabbed 8 rebounds.
My bad, it was team's stats

You're telling me France can't beat Georgia without Parker?
lately, only Russia can beat Georgia![]()
Well plenty of players are out for these games :
F. Pietrus, M. Pietrus, Petro, Mahinmi, Gelabale, Diaw, Batum, Ajinca, Noah, etc
So Parker is a true big improvement for the team, he should be able to make things easier.
Here's the french group for the following games :
Prénom Nom Taille Age Poste Club 2007/2008
Yannick BOKOLO 1,88 22 2 Le Mans SB
Stephen BRUN 2,02 27 4 BCM Gravelines-Dunkerque
Nando DE COLO 1,95 20 2 Cholet Basket
Yakhouba DIAWARA 2,01 25 3 Denver Nuggets (NBA)
William GRADIT 1,97 26 3 JA Vichy
Dounia ISSA 2,00 27 5 JA Vichy
Tariq KIRKSAY 1,98 28 3 Unics Kazan (Russie)
Claude MARQUIS 2,04 28 5 Cholet Basket
Tony PARKER 1,86 26 73 San Antonio Spurs (NBA)
Marc-Antoine PELLIN 1,70 20 1 Chorale de Roanne
William SOLIMAN 2,02 28 4 Chorale de Roanne
Steed TCHICAMBOUD 1,93 27 1 Cholet Basket
Ronny TURIAF 2,06 25 5 Los Angeles Lakers (NBA)
Those friendly games aim at preparing the team for euro qualifications in september.
Since there are plenty of new guys, the goal is to create some chemistry.
That roster is a bit strange with 3 NBA players and a bunch of second or even third hand guys who are here because the two other guys at their spot denied the selection.
