The move, confirmed on Wednesday by the French club, brings him back after his stint at Etoile Angers back in 2020, fresh out of his college days. While his time there was cut short due to him not being fully signed long-term, he then proceeded to join the Leicester Riders in the British Basketball League (BBL), with whom he made the playoffs after winning the regular season. Eventually, he made his next move to Austria to join the Arkadia Traiskirchen Lions.
Earlier in July, Falzon had disclosed with the Times of Malta that his time in Austria was up as he was setting his sights on a better contract and a better league.

Falzon averaged 12.9pts, 8.4reb, 2.8ast this past season with the Lions in a tough campaign for the team in the Austrian Bundesliga.
The Malta forward joins another seven new players on the team as they fight for an even better finish after ending the 2021/22 season in fourth place. He will be initially hoping to recover from a calf strain he suffered during Malta’s campaign in the FIBA Small Countries Games in June.
