On their third game in six days, the Yellows had their worst performance of the season. Sorkin was a bright spot with 10 points and 7 offensive boards. On Sunday, Maccabi’s in Rishon LeZion
It was Maccabi’s worst game of the season. A combination of fatigue, a terrible shooting night and high-level execution of the hosts led to a one-sided game from wire to wire. Unpleasant as this game was to watch, this kind of games can happen to every team, certainly in a home court that is yet to see Olympiacos lose this season in EuroLeague play.
After his historic 37-point game in the win over Monaco on Wednesday, Scottie Wilbekin cooled off with just 6 points. Only a few players in Yellow-and-Blue did have a solid game, notably Roman Sorkin with 10 points and 8 rebounds, 7 of which came on the offensive end. The young Israeli big was one offensive board shy of tying Maccabi’s EuroLeague record, held by Othello Hunter and Alex Tyus.
