A terrific record-breaking performance carried the Yellows to a 111:80 victory over the Italians. A win over Milano might guarantee a top-8 ticket
Numbers tell the story behind today’s game best. Maccabi scored 62 points in the first half, setting a new club record, and finished the game with 38 team assists – a Euroleague all-time record. Twelve players scored points for the hosts, seven reaching double figures (Darrun Hilliard being the top scorer with 16).
Above all, it was an incredible team effort. Oded Kattash’s players shared the ball, displayed fantastic defense, and kept focus for 40 minutes. The fans played their part, giving the Yellows support that no other European crowd can provide. Following today’s result, Maccabi’s winning streak stands at Nine, and judging by the level it has shown lately, there is no real reason for it to stop.
