Without Giannis Sfairopoulos and two of his assistances that tested positive with Covid-19 and without Ante Zizic, that felt bad a few hours before the game, Maccabi Playtika Tel-Aviv managed to get an important league win.
The Yellows edged past Hapoel Holon 80:79 at Menora Mivtachim Arena in a close game that was decided in its final seconds. The momentum switched sides many times until two made free-throws by Scottie Wilbekin decided the outcome.
Keenan Evans led Maccabi’s scorers with 21 points, a reason for optimism ahead of a week in which the Yellows will play twice in the Euroleague: against Zalgiris and Bayern Munich.
