Maccabi Tel Aviv suffered another defeat Friday, losing 88-67 to Partizan Belgrade. This marks their eighth loss in the last ten games. Following the game, coach Oded Katash addressed the team's poor performance, stating, "We didn't play right. We were without confidence. When you lack confidence, you need to keep it simple. We played poorly on offense." He acknowledged that the first five minutes were particularly bad, though the team made some corrections in the second half. Katash apologized to the fans, expressing hope for a swift improvement. Player Kithon Wallace, who scored 6 points, echoed the sentiment, emphasizing the need for the team to focus on improvement. "We need to concentrate on getting better," Wallace said. "I've said it in many interviews, but that's what needs to happen. We had a good week of practice, we saw the good things, and there were some good things tonight too. But we need to keep working. Things aren't going our way, but that's how you deal with these periods, you move on."
