The Yellow & Blue celebrated the win over Jerusalem, as they start their preparation towards Wednesday night. Sfairopoulos: “Really happy with our defensive performance, from now on, we will focus on our EuroLeague matchup against Fenerbahce”
“I’m delighted with our showing on defense, we were focused”. Said coach Giannis Sfairopoulos after the win over Jerusalem. “I think we played an excellent second half, offensively, we moved the ball and found a lot of open shots. In the first half, we were nervous and stress, although we started well, we then hesitated and took bad shots as we allowed Jerusalem to score easy points. In the second period, we played better, but in the third and fourth quarter, we proved to deserve this win”.
About Tyler Dorsey going forward after his excellent debut: “Tyler had a great day, he will be much better because it was hard for him to play only one game a week. If you count in the past month, he played only three games, so it wasn’t easy for him. Now, this is his starting point”.
“The three-pointers went in, especially in the second half”. Told Scottie Wilbekin after the victory. “Brown and Feldeine? They are both great players, we try to stop them every time we face them. They are one of the top players in the league, and it’s a good matchup against them. We want to win every chance we get”.
“It helps me get into a rhythm now that I can play most of the games”. Said Tyler Dorsey, after finishing his Israeli League debut with 15 points. “It was taking too long to get the citizenship set up for one reason or another, and I would have missed too many games. I wasn’t disappointed sitting out, it’s part of the game”.
