Maccabi Tel Aviv is actively searching for a new guard to join their roster, with the need described as immediate. The team is preparing to face Maccabi Rishon LeZion in their first away game of the Israeli Basketball Premier League season, aiming to maintain a perfect record in the domestic league. This game follows a disappointing EuroLeague loss to Real Madrid, and the team faces another demanding week with a double-header in European competition. Maccabi Tel Aviv currently holds a 5-2 record in the EuroLeague and 2-0 in the Premier League.
The absence of guard Iffe Lundberg due to injury has significantly impacted the team's game management and rotation. The club is struggling to find solutions during certain stretches without the Danish point guard, who is expected to be sidelined for longer than initially anticipated. The team hopes to secure a new guard signing in the very near future to address this gap.
For the upcoming game against Rishon LeZion, Oushe Brist and Daniel Theis will not be registered and will receive rest. The foreign player contingent registered for the game includes Keaton Wallace, Armando Bacot, Jalen Hurd, and Bonzie Colson. Coach Oded Katash plans to utilize a wide rotation, especially given the upcoming double EuroLeague week.
Will Rayman is also included in the squad for the game, filling the naturalized player spot previously occupied by Shane Hunter, who played nearly 30 minutes in the last league game against Kiryat Ata.
