After the trophy and before the selected window, the 19th round will be held in the league, which opens tomorrow (two nights) in two games.
Hapoel Holon vs. Hapoel Tel Aviv was the game that opened the season (75:89 to Holon), and in the evening we get the reciprocal drive. The thing is, on both sides there will be other coaches on the lines - both Greek. Janis Castritis hosts Stefanos Dadas.
For Hapoel Tel Aviv coach, this will be his second game in the team and home debut, following the dream opening in Barna's victory over Hapoel Jerusalem.
Holon on Tuesday cut a three-game losing streak in the league and Europe in a win over Maccabi Haifa, which placed it fourth. Today she will receive the new acquisition, Guard Mani Harris, in her debut. Harris is back to partner with Dadas after playing under him last season in Turkish Achatshir.
Ashdod will meet two teams with opposite goals on Saturday. The local group, the latest in the table, wants to close gaps with those above it, and will host Maccabi Haifa who wants to continue clinging to the top.
Excellent momentum of 4 wins in 5 games was cut to Haifa in a loss to Holon. Brad Greenberg and Paul Stoll will play against the ex with whom they won the championship in 2013, helping to re-emerge forwards Mark Tulipsen, who returns to the team he played last season and ranks as the league's best scorer, with 20.4 points per game, 44 percent off the arc.
