The 32-year-old forward complimented Angelo Cloiaro: "I really like playing with 'Jello', he is one of our defensive barometers. He always makes the right defensive or offensive move, he does not force, he knows how to take a post-up and get "Pauls, always taking advantage of him, putting the body together for the team. He really adds a lot of value, can play in both position 3 and position 4. He is just a great player for the team."
Maccabi captain John Dibertolomeo added: "We want to get better at home. I think our fans provide us with an advantage and at the moment it is a different challenge, but it is not an excuse, a lot of teams face it. Indeed, our fans give us another advantage over other teams. ".
