Colleagues in Israel report that Othello Hunter does not warm up before the game. In recent days, he has received a heavy dose of medication, but it seems unlikely that even that will help turn a tall man in Istanbul on his head. It is said that the wall of the wall was so strong that it was difficult for an American to walk in a straight line due to pain and dizziness. If this information is confirmed, it will be a great advantage for “Žalgiris”, who will face only the Croats Ante Žižičius and Draganas Benderis in the front row of their rivals. A big target will be placed on these tall jerseys, which will be mercilessly attacked by “Žalgiris”. The rivals are left with a low turnover, which those of Žalgiris will have to take advantage of an intense and physical basketball.

The beginning of the season is difficult for the Maccabi team. The Israeli club has won just twice and suffered five failures and is only fifteenth.

The positions of “Žalgiris” are much better: Kaunas residents who have won five victories in seven matches are in second position.

One of the team leaders, Othello Hunter, will not help Maccabi in this, so the task of “Žalgiris” in this match will be clear: stop the defenders of the opposing team.

Scottie Wilbekin (average of 17.6 points), Tyler Dorsey (11.1) and Elijah Bryant (10.3) are three of the four best Maccabi players. They only fit Ante Žižičius 210 cm tall, average. 11.3 points per game.

Lithuanian and Israeli teams will meet for the 26th time in the modern Euroleague. 16: 9 Maccabi leads.
