Hapoel Jerusalem continues to strengthen its roster for the 2026/27 basketball season, recently announcing the signing of guard Shake Milton from Partizan Belgrade. Milton, a former NBA player, will earn $1 million in the upcoming season. This addition follows several notable signings including guard Jaylen Smith, forwards David Roddy and Kenny Lofton Jr., and center Devontae Cacok. The team is close to finalizing its lineup, with Serbian center Dušan Miličić expected to be the next and possibly last signing.
The current roster includes guards Jared Harper, Roy Hooper, Shake Milton, Jaylen Smith, and Eitan Borg; forwards David Roddy and Yuval Zussman; forwards Kenny Lofton Jr., Nimrod Levi, and Yotam Hanuchi; and centers Devontae Cacok, Dušan Miličić (pending), and Gabi Chachashvili.
