Tamir Blatt Signs with Hapoel Tel Aviv After Yim Madar Joins Maccabi Tel Aviv
Tamir Blatt has agreed to terms with Hapoel Tel Aviv following Yim Madar's move to Maccabi Tel Aviv, marking a significant player exchange between the rival teams. After Madar declined an offer from Hapoel Tel Aviv and signed with Maccabi, Blatt, who completed his contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv, negotiated with Hapoel and reached a deal.
Maccabi Tel Aviv had offered Blatt a contract worth $900,000, but he demanded $1.5 million. With Madar's departure confirmed, Hapoel officially approached Blatt, and the two sides agreed on a $1.6 million salary for one season.
In his third season with Maccabi Tel Aviv, Blatt averaged 7.1 points and 5.2 assists in 19.5 minutes per game in the EuroLeague, alongside 9.6 points and 4.5 assists during the Israeli domestic league regular season. Now a free agent, Blatt's move to Hapoel Tel Aviv represents a notable shift in the Israeli Basketball Premier League.
