In its return game to the Euroleague playoffs after seven years, Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv lost 74:84 to Real Madrid and now trails 0:1 in the quarterfinal series. The Yellows gave everything they had and kept close to the Blancos, but unfortunately, it wasn’t enough.
The hosts had an exceptional evening from behind the arc, making 16 three-pointers and holding off any yellow comeback attempt to cut the lead. Scottie Wilbekin (20 points) led Maccabi, who will now focus on game 2 (Friday, 21:45 Israel time, 2:45 pm ET).
