Significant victory for the Yellows in Spain • Although they were 13 behind during the match, the players were able to return to victory 82:85
Important foreign victory for Maccabi Tel Aviv: The Yellows prevailed in Valencia over Valencia 82:85, and combined with a victory of Ceska Moscow (over Red Star Belgrade 81:86), the two remained close in fourth place in the Euroleague table. It was Maccabi's third straight win and the second straight out.
Maccabi overcame a lot of late 13 thanks to a great evening off the arc. Maccabi scored 14 threes by 49 percent yesterday. And in the manic time, she made three big threes to set the win. Scotty Wilbkin and Tyler Dorsey together scored 39 points with 9 common threes.

Maccabi played without the injured Quincy Acey and still without Yuval Sussman. Host Valencia played without two of her three coordinators: Sam Van Rossum and Giam Weaves.
Maccabi started well with 0: 8 and 6:16 after 7 minutes. Whoever thought this was going to be an easy trip was wrong. Maccabi only scored 17 points until the half. Valencia led at the end of the first quarter (18:19) and at the end of the half went down 33:38, with Kino Colum leading Valencia's only ball in this game doing an excellent job, with two high-replacing Maurice Ender and Mike Toby contributing 18 points. Maccabi, on the other hand, discovered a major offensive weakness when Scottie Wilbkin finished with just 5 points.
Valencia continued the trend in the third quarter as its central player chin Bojan Dobleevich entered and the Spanish team rose to 35:48.

Scotty Wilbkin woke up (12 points in the third quarter) and Maccabi returned to the game and with threes from Danny Abadia and Tyler Dorsey reversed the delay, rising 61:63 early in the fourth quarter. The tight game continued until the end. Two minutes into the game, Dobleevich tripled Valencia to a 75:77 lead. Then three Wilkinson threes and two Dorsey came and closed the game.
