Ironi Ness Ziona confirmed on Friday that their guard, Adam Ariel, has been diagnosed with a fracture in the acetabulum rim of his hip joint. Ariel, who joined the team this summer on a three-year contract reportedly at a record salary for an Israeli player in the club's history, had previously recovered from a knee injury sustained during the last national team window. He had returned to full training but now faces a new setback. He is expected to be sidelined for approximately six weeks and will begin his rehabilitation with the team's medical staff.
In parallel, the club announced the signing of guard Shalev Lugashi to a two-month contract with an option to extend through the end of the season. Lugashi, 25, stands at 1.95 meters and arrives from Bnei Herzliya, where he played for two seasons. Last season, he averaged 9.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game. Lugashi expressed his enthusiasm about joining Ness Ziona, stating his commitment to helping the team achieve its goals.
