Teams Preview

Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv

Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv battled intensely but fell 87-75 in Belgrade, with Crvena Zvezda closing out strong, especially defensively in the fourth quarter, holding Hapoel to just six points after a competitive first three periods.

Chris Jones led the scoring with 16 points and Ish Wainright added 15 points, showing fight, but the remaining cast failed to provide enough support.

Offensively, Hapoel shot reasonably from deep (51.7%), but couldn’t sustain scoring when it mattered most. Defensively, they got outrebounded 47-24 on the boards, losing out on second chance opportunities and committed 12 crucial turnovers, causing momentum swings and points off turnovers.

This loss extends their losing streak to three matches and highlights Hapoel’s offensive rhythm challenges late and the need for cleaner execution in crunch moments to stay atop EuroLeague standings. Overall, the team averages 86 points per game, while dishing out 16.5 assists. Defensively, they record 33.6 rebounds, 6.5 steals and 2.8 blocks per game.

Valencia Basket

Valencia Basket’s road trip to Istanbul ended in a 107-90 defeat against Anadolu Efes, with the Spanish side struggling from the outset in a contest that quickly slipped out of their hands.

Despite Nathan Reuvers erupting for 30 points, Valencia couldn’t sustain offensive momentum or defensive consistency against a rejuvenated Efes attack.

Offensively, Valencia just shot 56.8% from the two point range, 40.7% from the perimeter and struggled greatly from the free throw line (58.3%). Defensively, they got outrebounded 33-30 on the boards, allowing Efes easy baskets and committed 13 crucial turnovers, hurting them down the stretch.

Valencia’s shooting woes and lapses in transition defense ultimately kept them from closing the gap, resulting in a painful loss. Overall, the team averages 90.2 points per game, supported by their 20.8 assists. Defensively, they record 37.6 rebounds, 7.2 steals and 3.1 blocks per game.
