Much satisfaction in Maccabi Tel Aviv after 82:93 on Hapoel Jerusalem, which promised them first place at the end of the regular season, hosting the Final Four if they went to it and winning the championship if God forbid the season ends sooner than expected due to the Corona virus.

Tyler Dorsey, who is staying in solitary confinement, was again missing and the team hopes his Corona test results will come during the day and then he will be back for training. Following the absence, the staff in the past few days prepared the professional Yuval Sussman to receive minutes in the coordinator position. "We opened well, we came aggressive with energy and everyone saw it from the first minute," he said at the conclusion of Sussman. "We led for 37 minutes and controlled the game. We lacked players, so we played and did what we wanted on defense."

The Israeli guard added: "He believes he is one of the best players in Europe and he proves it every day. When he wants, no one in Europe can stop him. He can put a basket out of any situation and any particle of space."

In the meantime, the club has been busy lately with criticisms voiced by fans on social networks and various media articles about stagnating the roster for next season while all over Europe the Euroleague teams are signing flashy and arm-wracking names. Along with the reassurance announcement issued by the Yellows, a club official said the stated goal is to keep most of the current roster players and to add about three new players to the missing positions - Coordinator, Center and Forward.

Good news comes from Tyler Dorsey. According to officials, the club's representatives have made it clear to the club that the player will not exercise the option to leave for the rest of the month and continue for another season in the yellow uniform when he may also open his contract with an option for another season.
