Hapoel Jerusalem maintained its undefeated record in the EuroCup on Wednesday, securing a significant 84-73 victory over Aris Thessaloniki. Coach Sasa Obradovic praised the team's performance and the crucial support from the home crowd, noting that the table standings are less important at this stage of the season.

"We won, we struggled part of the game against a tough defense, but we also did a good job in the second half. That's why we won. It's a team win, it's not Milton or Lofton," Obradovic stated, emphasizing the collective effort. He added, "Especially with this crowd, it was easy."

Shai Miltion, who scored 19 points, echoed the sentiment of teamwork. "It was a team effort. We didn't give up when things weren't going our way, we didn't break when it was tough, we came out of it as a team."

Lorenzo Brown, contributing 11 points, highlighted the fans' impact. "Our energy came from the crowd. We fed off their cheers, it helped us a lot. We knew they would be aggressive to win, but our guys wanted it a bit more. It's a process. I arrived late and I'm getting used to the team, trying to understand everyone's role and mine."
