A very important victory for Ness Ziona, who today (Friday) defeated Hapoel Gilboa / Galil 71:81 in a game between two teams that were in the same balance before the round.
Frank Bartley (22 points) and Tim Suarez (19) excelled and covered for a weak game from Dianta Garrett.
One of the X Factors was Tal Dan who returned to the floor after two games due to a professional decision by Lior Lubin.
The veteran player started in the top five and finished with 13 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds.
Ness Ziona chairman Yaniv Mizrahi, who celebrated his birthday today, could not have asked for a better gift than that.
Gilboa has moved very far from the upper house and it will probably have to fight for the playoffs through the lower house.
Michael Brisker scored 16 points, but the absence of Sasha Kielia-Jones was felt in the loss that interrupted a streak of three wins for the Northerners.
