And after defeating Real Madrid, Maccabi Tel Aviv stays at the top of its domestic league.
The team trained by Oded Kattash had no problems defeating Bnei Herzliya 114-99 to jump to a perfect 3-0 balance.
Just like in Euroleague, the win arrived after an outstanding second quarter.
The game started with no team getting a remarkable lead (22-21), but everything changed in the second quarter thanks to a 35-point explosion.
Despite a small run from the home team, the game was never at risk for Maccabi Tel Aviv, which will have to wait for Hapoel Tel Aviv’s game (26/10) to know if they are alone at the top.
Roman Sorkin celebrated his Euroleague Round 6 MVP with another good game (16 points), but it was John Di Bartolomeo who finished as Maccabi’s top scorer thanks to his 18-point performance.
Max Heidegger’s great game (29 points) was of no use for Bnei Herzliya, which has yet to win a game this season (0/2).
In the other game of the day, Hapoel HaEmek got a road win after defeating Hapoel Jerusalem 65-69.
