Maccabi Tel Aviv continued its strong domestic league performance with a decisive 114-89 victory over Hapoel Kiryat Ata on Thursday. Despite a less impressive showing in European competitions, the team demonstrated its offensive prowess in the Israeli league, following up last week's win over Galil Elyon with another dominant performance.
The game saw Maccabi establish an early lead, scoring 36 points in the first quarter. Kiryat Ata attempted to keep pace, but a 22-2 run by Maccabi in the second quarter extended their lead to 58-29, effectively sealing the game. Coach Oded Katash experimented with his lineup, notably using Clark as a sole point guard, a strategy that proved successful.
Veteran guard John DiBartolomeo delivered a standout performance, setting a personal record for three-point shots made, despite Yam Madar not being in the lineup. T.J. Leaf was dominant in the paint, and Shane Hunter made a significant impact in his official debut for the team, recording a double-double. The team's high shooting percentages were a key factor in their commanding win.
