It should be noted that this week Chimki had to play another away game, but it will not take place. On Thursday, a Moscow-based club in Israel was due to join the 24th round of the Euroleague tournament with Mac Avabi in Tel Aviv, but it was officially canceled.

The reason is the restrictions imposed by the Israeli authorities on commercial flights from foreign countries in connection with the coronavirus pandemic.

True, according to the country’s media, the Israeli sports ministry managed to demand an exemption over the weekend to allow private jets to land, but Chimki does not intend to use such an exemption. The belt-clad Moscow region club does not plan to book a charter flight and would send the team to Israel only on a regular passenger plane, which is not possible at this time.

Chimki’s team finishes last in the Euroleague tournament table with 2 wins and 21 losses. The Russian team has already “reached” the tournament’s all-time record, losing 15 consecutive matches.
