The basketball Premier League will continue tomorrow (Saturday) with two games.
In a game from the 12th round, Hapoel Jerusalem will host Maccabi Rishon Lezion, in a rematch of the State Cup semi-final from a few weeks ago.
In a game from the 18th round, Hapoel Holon hopes to continue its good European season into the league as well when it has a tough away game against the second in the table, Hapoel Gilboa / Galil (81:88 to Gilboa / Galil in Holon in the first round).

Hapoel Jerusalem - Maccabi Rishon Lezion (19:10, Sport 5)
Despite the fact that it was far from impressive at the beginning of the week in Ein Sara, Hapoel Jerusalem returned to the winning track and regained second place in the table.
In Jerusalem, it is hoped that the victory will lead to an increase in the group's confidence, and perhaps to better ability in the future.
Stanton Kidd recorded a good debut game for the Reds with 13 points and 5 rebounds.
Jerusalem is excited for the return of the crowd to the arena, although there are only 300 spectators in the first phase, but the team hopes that already in the next league game they will be able to bring in a thousand spectators, and on the way to a much higher amount.
Maccabi Rishon Lezion comes to the arena with an alarming streak of six league losses in seven games, and they are closer to the red line than to the playoffs.
Jeremy Fargo, who will return to the team he played for at the end of last season, made a good debut against Hapoel Eilat on Tuesday with 27 points and 7 threes, but on the other hand Jamil Wilson, who came from Hapoel Jerusalem, was very disappointed with 2 points.
The club will make a decision only towards the evening hours whether to register Wilson again in the squad and leave Trey Lewis on the bench, with one of the problems being the fitness of Noam Avivi, who played against Hapoel Eilat but is not fully qualified.
Will the momentum from Europe continue?

Hapoel Gilboa / Galil - Hapoel Holon (20:05, 5STARS and Sport 5)
Avishai Gordon's team returned from the break on the left foot with a defeat in the away game in Be'er Sheva, which did not rise to second place in the table, but proved that even now its place among the top six is not guaranteed.
Gilboa are coming to the game against Hapoel Holon, their seventh game in total this season at home, knowing that a loss could complicate them further down the road in the struggles to enter the upper house.
The team hopes for an appropriate response from the players to the previous game, when Ziv's opener will try to put a fallen game behind him in which he scored only once from the field.
Hapoel Holon continued their great season in Europe in the middle of the week with a big away win over Italian Brindisi, and now they are returning to the Premier League for a critical game for them.
Although there is no doubt about the quality of its staff, Holon finds itself very close to Hapoel Beer Sheva and Ness Ziona who are now out of the top six, and with two losses in the last three league games.
Holon will appear in the game without Isaiah Miles, who is in the final stages of isolating his corona, and also without Richard Howell, who continues to suffer an injury.
"The game against Gilboa / Galil is another game against a team we know very well," said Stefanos Dads ahead of the game. Galil is a team that recently defeated Jerusalem and Maccabi Tel Aviv but on the other hand suffered losses from less good teams, meaning every game is difficult and of equal value. We have to play our game, stop their guards and try to adjust to the points where they are strong. "We do not have time to prepare as we would like and that is why we need to show character and toughness in order to defeat them in their home."
