\nVasilije Micic, Jones, Oturu and Bryant tried to cut into the lead, but Hezonja kept scoring while Trey Lyles along with Maledon continued to find the bottom of the basket as Real wrapped up the win. Hezonja scored 15 points, Maledon added 13 points and Lyes put in 12 points in the win while Jones scored 15 points and Bryant chipped in with 13 points in the loss. <\/p>\n

Next up for the reds is a clash at Baskonia on Friday night in a game that will also be played behind closed doors due to Spain’s security concern for Israeli teams.<\/p>\n

Hapoel Head Coach Dimitris Itoudis summed up the game, \u201cFrom the start, we weren\u2019t in the mindset of getting stops. Real Madrid has a lot of quality. We didn\u2019t try to do anything to take them out of their comfort zone and we paid the price. Unfortunately, even though we analyzed a plan to apply a lot of pressure on their ball handlers, it turned out the opposite. We weren\u2019t in the right defensive mindset; we gave them too much space to operate. Our approach on the defensive end was bad and in the end we didn\u2019t deserve to win as they were better.\u201d

\nKessler Edwards reflected on the loss, \u201cIt was a tough game, we really wanted to come in and win. The good part is that we have a chance to finish this week with a victory on Friday. It\u2019s very important that we stay connected and I\u2019m looking forward to finishing this season strong.\u201d<\/p>\n

Levi Randolph added, \u201cIt was a tough game, defensively. We knew who we were up against, a very good team. We\u2019ll need to keep playing hard, keep learning, keep improving. We move on to the next game because we already have another one on Friday.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
