Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv had no problem in Round 5 of Israel’s Winner League Regular Season. Hapoel Eilat was no match as the Oded Kattash squad marched to the win, 96-74.

Jake Cohen led the way with 14 points. Rafi Menco and Alex Poythress added 11 points each. On the opposite end,  Netanel Arzis’s 23 points and Eric Griffin’s 22 fell short of a win for the home side.

Lorenzo Brown, Wade Baldwin, Jarell Martin, and Austin Hollins did not suit up to instead rest for the upcoming challenges.

On Thursday, Maccabi will be tasked with one of the biggest early-season fixtures when FC Barcelona arrives in Tel Aviv in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season Round 7 schedule. The Israel giant currently holds a 4-2 record in the top-tier European club continental tournament.
