Eurocup summary: Gran Canaria - Hapoel Tel Aviv 83:85 (Sport1)
Maccabi Tel Aviv suffered a difficult blow with the injury of Alex Poithers, who underwent surgery on his hand and will be out for several months, and now they have to respond.
The Yellows are looking for reinforcements for the front line and according to a report in "Eurohops" they are interested in Costas Antetokounmpo, the brother of NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo.
In fact, Oded Ketch's team is one of three Euroleague teams interested in the Greek Bigman, along with Fenerbahce and Panathinaikos.
The 25-year-old Antetokounmpo is currently signed to a fairly lucrative contract in Chicago, but so far he has only spent time with the Bulls' Development League team.
If and when he arrives in Europe, it won't be Antetokounmpo's first time in the Euroleague, as last season he played for the French side Villeneuve.
Antetokounmpo has a championship ring on his resume from the Lakers winning in 2020, despite the fact that he hardly played.
Antetokounmpo was selected 60th and last in the 2018 draft, played three years in Dallas, the Lakers and the teams of the development leagues of the two, until he arrived at Villerban.
After a season in France, he again tried his luck in the United States, but now he may return to the old continent, perhaps even to Tel Aviv.
