Lotan Amsalem and Nes Ziona Part Ways After Injury-Plagued Season
After a challenging season marked by injuries, forward Lotan Amsalem and Nes Ziona have mutually agreed to part ways. Amsalem underwent two surgeries during the season, including one for a torn meniscus, which limited his playing time. Despite these setbacks, he insisted on playing after the war break to help the team secure its place in the Israeli Basketball Premier League. Currently, he is recovering from surgery performed about two weeks ago.
During the season, Amsalem averaged 14.6 minutes over 24 games, scoring 5 points and grabbing 3 rebounds per game. Nes Ziona had the option to extend his contract for another year but ultimately decided not to exercise it. This decision concludes Amsalem's tenure with the club following a difficult year of balancing recovery and competition.
