- Two Israeli basketball players reached the EuroLeague with Red Star Belgrade.

- A third Israeli player will also compete in the EuroLeague this season.
Israeli basketball players Dorian Dahan Switz and Romy Levi have advanced to the EuroLeague tournament with their team, Red Star Belgrade. The two players were instrumental in the Serbian team's 71-66 victory over Hungary's DVTK in the playoff finals, which took place on their home court in Miskolc, Hungary. Dahan Switz, in her second season with Red Star Belgrade, played 31 minutes, scoring 6 points, grabbing 4 rebounds, and dishing out 3 assists. Levi, who joined the team this year after a college career, played 6 minutes without scoring but secured 3 rebounds.
This achievement marks a historic moment, as Dahan Switz and Levi become the first two Israeli players to play together on a non-Israeli team in the EuroLeague. With Jordan Garzon also set to play for Spain's Zaragoza this season, there will be three Israeli players competing in the EuroLeague for non-Israeli clubs for the first time.
