Israeli Basketball Federation Seeks Return of National Team Games to Israel
Amos Frishman, chairman of the Israeli Basketball Association, has formally requested FIBA President Jorge Garbajosa to consider allowing Israeli national basketball team games to be held again in Israel. This move comes after home games have been relocated to Riga since October 7 due to security concerns. Garbajosa responded that the matter will be discussed at the upcoming FIBA board meeting next week. Israeli teams have also been unable to host European matches in Israel, with only a brief return interrupted by renewed tensions with Iran. While no decision has yet been made, the scheduled discussion at FIBA's board signals potential progress toward resuming games on Israeli soil in the near future.
