After a stormy week that included the suspension of team player Darren Hilliard, Maccabi Tel Aviv flew to Germany today (Thursday) for its match against Bayern Munich tomorrow evening as part of the 11th round of the Euroleague.
The Yellows will also miss Wade Baldwin who is suffering from muscle pain and will not fly with the team.
The coach of Maccabi Tel Aviv, Oded Ketch, commented on the stormy week that has passed for his team:
"We issued a club statement and said the things as they are, did not go into details. We acted as we thought we should act, we did it in an orderly manner. There are all kinds of things that led to this but we received the The decision is together. His return depends on several things that are going to happen, we did not remove him permanently, we will wait and see in the coming days."
With regard to the injury of Alex Poithers, Ketch shared:
"Since the first home game in the Euroleague, he has been carrying the medical situation in his hand and he is playing with it, there was some worsening over time in his condition. It is something that is difficult to know what will happen in the future, as of now he is with us and that is what we are concentrating on." .
Ketch referred to the opponent and said:
"We have another tough game away, we will be without a number of players but we will concentrate on the players we have. We were close in the last games and I think we are doing a better job, hopefully we will get an away victory. It is not easy to play against Bayern, certainly not away and for sure Not that they are recovering from a less than good start."
"This is still a very experienced team with the same coach and staff, very much in control. It's not going to be easy like in many Euroleague games, we come up a little short but we really feel that it can be done. The last losses were very eye-opening, we've made progress since Fener and Baskonia, we hope to do more step".
