After returning to win the league, Oded Ketch's Maccabi Tel Aviv, who played for the first time in black uniforms, is currently hosting Valencia in a meeting between two teams that have a record of five wins and six losses.
Even before the match, an official and special ceremony was held in which Nikola Vujic was announced as a Euroleague legend, in the presence of Euroleague President Diane Bodiroga.
The Yellows will have to manage without Alex Poithers, who will undergo surgery on his hand and will be out for four to six months.
Wade Baldwin, whose wife gave birth to their second son this week and missed the last two games due to muscle tenderness, will take part in the matchup.
On the other hand, the Spaniards arrived in Tel Aviv without their leading player, ex-Maccabi Chris Jones.
The excellent point guard, who scores 14.4 points per game this season and distributes 4.8 assists, is suffering from knee inflammation and will miss the upcoming games.
Veteran striker Sam van Rossum is also out with a knee injury and unavailable for Valencia coach Alex Mumbro.
