Maccabi FOX Tel Aviv will be hosted by Hapoel Jerusalem tonight (21:00, Channel 1) at the Pais Arena in a head-to-head fight for first place in the Israeli Winner Sal League.
After the final practice before the big game, Maccabi’s head coach Zan Tabak said: “It’s going to be a difficult game against a tough opponent. If we want to win the title, this is the kind of game we must win. This is the highest level in Israeli basketball. There’s no doubt that we hope to win this game, but the most important thing is winning the championship at the end of the season. Hendrix is doing well, he was in Maccabi before and he understands how things work in the club, but it will take him a little longer to be completely integrated into the team. Both of the teams are more dependent on their players on the back line.”
