Hapoel Tel Aviv came up short to Fenerbahce 74-68 in a terrific contest that saw Talen Horton-Tucker and Devon Hall keep the hosts in front after a low scoring first half in a game that was held in Munich due to the security situation between Turkey and Israel. The Reds grabbed an early 28-27 lead at halftime thanks to Elijah Bryant and Vasilije Micic but the duo of Horton-Tucker and Hall proved to be unstoppable as Dimitrios Itoudis\u2019s side came up short to see their Euroleague record drop to 8-3 on the young season. Prior to the game, Itoudis along with assistant coach Stefanos Dedas as well as Jonathan Motley were welcomed back after having previously played for Fenerbahce.

\u201cWe had a good first half, we were ahead by 5 and we let them score easy baskets,\u201d Hapoel Tel Aviv Head Coach Dimitrios Itoudis said. \u201cIn such a close game you can’t lose an advantage. Because we made a lot of substitutions to prevent their guards from creating, they also made a lot of substitutions. We were good in the second quarter and found the right player. The fact that they took so many rebounds on offense, even after free throws, hurt us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Itoudis added, \u201cWe played against the Euroleague champion, a team that was built to go all the way, we can learn from this game. We are ready to accept the challenge and the lesson. They play physical, but we also responded with physicality. I said before the game that I don’t like the label of an offensive team, we need to know how to make adjustments. It was also a defensive game against Olympiacos, and we almost won.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
