After the two victories over Fenerbahçe and Anadolu Efes in the Euroleague, and with a streak of four games without a loss in the league, Maccabi Tel Aviv is hosted this evening (Monday) by Irini Nes Ziona in order to increase the gap with Po'el Tel Aviv in second place.
The yellows come to the meeting especially encouraged with great ability, especially in the away game in Turkey on Friday, and will hope to continue the momentum against the oranges who are in a bad time.
Wade Baldwin and Jarrell Martin were not included in Oded Ketch's squad, who will hope to use Ness Ziona's record in the last five games - a single win and four losses - into an away victory.
Benes Ziona will try to put the incident between Elad Hassin and DJ Cooper behind them and stay in the upper part in order not to degenerate into surprising struggles in the lower house just before the last straight of the regular season.
We want to continue the good ability from Europe in the league as well.
