Tonight (19:30, Sport 5 Plus), Hapoel Holon will host Nes Ziona in the opening of the second round of the basketball Premier League.
The Purples come into the game after a hard-fought victory in the WC, and an unstable period.
In the last eight games in the league, Maurizio Buscalia and his players have not put together two consecutive victories.
The house is also no longer an anchor after the loss to Hapoel Eilat at Toto Hall two rounds ago.
Holon have two games before the big test against Besiktas in the playoffs of the Champions League next Wednesday.
On Saturday, she will leave for Eilat and it will be another game that will be used to continue the process of integrating guard Adam Smith into the team.

Ness Ziona started the season very badly with three losses, one of which was at home to Hapoel Holon.
From there, the team went on to a streak of five straight wins, much thanks to one of the best guard pairs in the league - Diante Garrett and Frank Bartley.
Then the wheel turned with two defeats for Herzliya and Hapoel Jerusalem, in which they scored an average of 58 points.
On Sunday, a twist came again with a victory over Hapoel Haifa, where the attack returned to function with 89 points.
The one who has not acclimatized to the Oranges so far is chin Simisula Shito, who in the four games since arriving in the South, has scored an average of five points per game.
