In Basketball Champions League action, Hapoel Holon topped Cholet 103-92 as Jordan McRae starred for the purples in France. Danny Franco\u2019s side had a slow start to the game, but picked up the pace in the middle quarters to jump ahead and take the double-digit win. Holon are now 2-1 in BCL play as they will play Cholet once again in a couple of weeks. McRae scored 24 points as Netanel Artzi and Xavier Munford each scored 17 points in the victory. Daylen Kountz scored 15 points while Gerald Ayayi and Isaiah Miles scored 13 points a piece in the loss.

\n\u201cIt was a very high tempo game,\u201d Hapoel Holon Head Coach Danny Franco began. \u201cIt was not really what we had planned at the beginning but we were able with our determination to minimize the huge athletic ability that Cholet has, but my players came up and did a good job and it was an impressive win for us. It was a team effort and we are a new team and our first game on the road and the arena was full with an amazing atmosphere with great fans it was important for us to step up as a team and take a lot of experience from this evening.\u201d

\nHolon captain Netanel Artzi spoke about the victory, \u201cThe staff prepared us well before the game and we know that every game in the BCL is important which is something we think about. It wasn\u2019t easy. Every team is good in the BCL so we have to stick together and believe in ourselves. We are 2-1 but we have to keep believing. We can\u2019t celebrate too much as tomorrow we have to start all over again.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
