New legionnaire: Muhammad Abu Arisha signed with Ami Basket, the leader of the table in the Moroccan league, on a one-season contract, Israel Today has learned for the first time.
The Israeli forward has been with the team for over two months and has impressed the club's leaders professionally.
He is one of the top foreigners in the league with beautiful averages of 19.8 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game.
The Ami Basket group, from the city of Ifran located in the Atlas Mountains, was established only in 2014 and has luxurious training facilities alongside an advanced youth academy.
She finished the first round of the 2021/22 season in first place in the Northern District with a perfect balance of seven wins in seven games.
Abu Arisha (24, 2.01 m) played last season for Hapoel Beer Sheva in the Premier League and in the middle of the season moved to Elitzur Kiryat Ata from the National League.
Last summer he preferred to move abroad and now with the help of his agent he will be the first Israeli basketball player in history to play in an Arab country.
As you may recall, before coming to Hapoel Beer Sheva, Abu Arisha played several seasons in colleges.
First at Jacksonville College and then moved to Kentucky Westline College.
Even before that, when he was younger, Abu Arisha was marked as one of the great talents of the 1997 year at the basketball association's academy.
He played for the youth teams, and in 2015 was invited to a prestigious camp in the United States for the top 100 talents in the world.
