Amith Gershon Signs Two-Year Deal with Bnei Herzliya Basketball Club

Bnei Herzliya officially announced the signing of guard Amith Gershon on a two-year contract, marking their third acquisition this summer after Amit Menachem and Dusty Hannahs. Gershon, who left Maccabi Netanya, expressed enthusiasm about joining what he described as a "family club" with a strong tradition of success in recent seasons. He also looks forward to competing in the FIBA Champions League and connecting with the fans.

Last season at Netanya, Gershon averaged 12.3 points per game with a 40.6% three-point shooting percentage. He began his Israeli Premier League career in the 2018/19 season with Hapoel Be'er Sheva, where he was named Rookie of the Year. Since then, he has played for Jerusalem, Eilat, Hapoel Haifa, and Netanya.

Bnei Herzliya's coach Yehou Orland praised Gershon as one of the league's top guards, highlighting his outside shooting as a key asset for the team this summer. Orland expressed confidence that Gershon will fit well with the team's style and character and hopes he will take another step forward in his development with Herzliya.
