Maccabi Tel Aviv Targets Keaton Wallace From Atlanta Hawks for 2026/27 Season

Maccabi Tel Aviv is actively pursuing American guard Keaton Wallace as a key addition to their backcourt lineup, according to a report by Basket News. Wallace, 27, has spent the past two seasons with the NBA's Atlanta Hawks and is expected to continue his career in Europe starting with the 2026/27 season, with Maccabi Tel Aviv among the leading candidates to sign him.

During the 2025/26 NBA season, Wallace averaged 3.5 points, 1.1 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 10 minutes per game, shooting 37.3% from three-point range. His rookie season in 2024/25 was more productive, with averages of 5.4 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 2.6 assists over 16 minutes per game. Notably, he scored a career-high 27 points against the Chicago Bulls and recorded his first NBA triple-double with 15 points, 11 rebounds, and 15 assists in a win over the Orlando Magic.

Wallace went undrafted in 2021 after completing his college career at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) but earned his place in the NBA through persistence and professional growth. After two seasons with the Hawks, he is now poised to embark on a new chapter in European basketball, with Maccabi Tel Aviv showing significant interest in acquiring him for their roster.
