Israeli basketball player Shalev Lugashi is in advanced negotiations to join the Ness Ziona team, according to Sport 5. Lugashi, who stood out last season with Bnei Herzliya, is reportedly set to sign a one-year contract with an option for the club to terminate the deal mid-season.
The move comes as Ness Ziona seeks to strengthen its roster, having already added several notable players over the summer. The team is also dealing with an injury to key Israeli forward Adam Ariel, who is undergoing tests for a hip injury.
Last season, Lugashi averaged 9.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and one steal per game for Herzliya. Despite interest from other league teams, he remained unsigned until these negotiations with Ness Ziona began.
Ness Ziona is also reportedly interested in Itai Segev and Oz Blizer as they finalize their squad. The team's Greek coach is said to be planning further roster adjustments.
