Maccabi Tel Aviv Faces Kiryat Ata in Winner Cup Quarterfinals
Maccabi Tel Aviv is set to play against Elitzur Kiryat Ata in the Winner Cup quarterfinals tonight at 7:00 PM in Hadera. The team is looking to rebound from a recent EuroLeague loss to Villeurbanne and start a busy week with a victory. This week also includes two more EuroLeague games against Besiktas and Panathinaikos.
Due to the demanding schedule, coach Oded Katash plans to manage player minutes and implement rotations. Jimmy Clark, who recently returned from injury, is expected to play earlier to regain full rhythm. T.J. Leaf is anticipated to play after missing the last game, while Bonzie Colson will likely rest further due to illness. Jalen Hurd might also be rested ahead of the upcoming EuroLeague fixtures.
Kiryat Ata enters the match on a two-game winning streak, having defeated Hapoel Holon and Hapoel HaEmek. In their recent game against Hapoel HaEmek, Kiryat Ata staged an impressive comeback from an 18-point deficit to win in overtime. However, the team lost Niki Sibande to a long-term injury during the Holon game, leaving them with only three foreign players, the lowest number in the league.
