The last time Maccabi Tel Aviv fans were allowed to enter Eliyahu, seven months ago, about 3,000 of them watched it beat Anadolu Zero in the last home game before the Corona was shut down.

Jaylen Reynolds then contributed seven points and five rebounds in less than ten minutes, and tonight (Wednesday, 19:30, live on Sport 5) will return to the hall - this time without an audience - in the uniform of his new team Bayern Munich.

The Bavarians left Germany yesterday for the first time since they began preparations for the season, with the American chin contributing an average of 13 points and eight rebounds in the first two rounds.

"It is a big mess to fly, but we are doing the right thing. There is so much confusion, and I wish we would get up one day and it would end," Reynolds said in a conversation with representatives of the Israeli media.

"The situation is strange. I hope we can continue to play. I do not know if the Euroleague will stop or not, but we need to find a solution to the problem. Maybe declare an isolated bubble, and hold a tournament in it."

"Obviously this is an important game for me because I played for Maccabi. They welcomed me with open arms, but this is the business. Players move between teams all the time. It is clear that Maccabi has a place in my heart, and I had a great experience here."

"I got to a winning team, and they immediately put me in the fire."

Reynolds (27, 2.06) arrived in Tel Aviv to fill the place of Tariq Black in the Euroleague, and his temporary contract was not renewed after the return of the Corona retreat.

"I got to a winning team, and I knew I had to be ready because they put me right into the fire. The fans were amazing, and that helped me get through all the difficulties."

"I believe we could have won the Euroleague. We learned a lot in a short time. I was very comfortable in the team, I knew what I had to give. The fact that Aaron Jackson and I played in China helped us a lot."

"I know how Hunter plays and I know that Žižić is very talented and big, and it will be a battle. For me, the fact that there is no audience in the hall does not give us an advantage. It's bad luck, but it's our job and we have to perform and play. .

"He hates being apologized for."

Bayern, who lost center Greg Monroe in the summer and landed Reynolds in his place, are presenting a leaner team this season, on a reduced budget, and the American center has a significant role under new coach Andrea Trinkieri.

"I try to get used to the method. With Trinkieri it all starts with the defense, and I try to be the team leader on and off the pitch. Our coach is very intelligent and knows basketball, and even when you think you'm right and wrong, the opposite happens, and it turns out he knows where you need to be. "Knowing how to accept criticism from him, and he hates being apologized for. He wants us to just accept what he says. I feel we are hungry for the future, and that will lead to positive results. Everyone is trying to motivate the other, selflessness is our key."
