\nHead Coach Nadav Zilberstein\u2019s squad opened up an 11-point lead in the first quarter but the Danes cut down the deficit and even took the leas in the second quarter but Israel finished the half strong to take a 50-40 advantage after twenty minutes of action. In the second half, Israel completely took control of the game thanks to outstanding performances from Musis, Aviv Aronov and Omri Orland who led the young blue-and-white to the 14-point victory.

Personally, I’m very pleased with the game I had and I think that I showed what I’m capable of. We still haven’t accomplished anything yet.
