After two consecutive losses, Hapoel Jerusalem returned tonight (Monday) to the winning track when they defeated Ness Ziona 78:84.
Two and a half quarters of the team from the capital mentioned the ability from the Katash era and already led by 18 points while presenting fast and attractive basketball, but as usual this season, once again complicating life in the last 15 minutes.
The Oranges went for an amazing 0:18 run thanks to the wonderful ability of Wayne Selden and Brian Angola (22) and in the last minutes also took the lead, but in the end Suleiman Braimo with tremendous ability (25 points and 25 index points) and Stanton Kidd with some important shots arranged a victory And released a lot of pressure in Dainius adomitis.
Thanks to the victory, Jerusalem returned to fourth place in the table and somewhat calmed the fears of relegation from the top six.
Ness Ziona, on the other hand, is already counting four consecutive league losses and alongside the European Cup celebration that will arrive in Israel, it may remain out of the playoffs.
