One of the great things about the FIBA Youth Tournaments is the opportunity is to see the stars of the future, today. That was once again the case in Tel Aviv as Israel hosted one of the Under-18 groups which included basketball powerhouses France, Estonia, Greece, Lithuania, along with Portugal. <\/p>\n

Israel won the competition with a 4-1 record in what was a group stage tournament in place of the usual European Championship which was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

Each team is littered with potential players who may feature in their own domestic league, the Euroleague or perhaps even the NBA. A number of players had already caught the eye of scouts prior to the competition whether it\u2019s Israel\u2019s Yuval Levin from Maccabi Tel Aviv, France\u2019s Daryl Doualla who is part of ASVEL\u2019s youth department along with Los Altos high school stud Jazz Gardner, Athanasios Bazinas from Greece, Lithuania\u2019s Emilis Butkus and top ranked Henri Veesaar from Estonia.

\nHowever, on player who came out of absolutely nowheres to steal the show and the tournament\u2019s most valuable player award was Israeli Ron Zipper. <\/p>\n

Zipper had never been a part of the National Team program and in fact, the 18-year old had been playing for a 3rd division club in Ashkelon as well as a second division youth league and barely raised an eyebrow. <\/p>\n

However, as the competition went on, Zipper\u2019s name began to grow as fans fell in love with the sharpshooter who averaged 25.2 points over the five games going an astonishing 27\/54 from 3-point range for over a 50% clip from deep! <\/p>\n

But it wasn\u2019t just his shot that fell, it was his overall game going 5\/5 from the line late against France while scoring 10 points in a row to give Israel a hard earned win over arguably the most talented team in the competition.

\nZipper\u2019s exploits traveled over the ocean too many experts of the game as his legend began to grow game after game. <\/p>\n

In his first game, U18 captain Nevo Sommerfeld explained that while for most of the players in the tournament they had already been a part of the Israel National Team program for years, but that was not the case for Zipper after putting up 28 points against Lithuania in a 100-71 win.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know if you know this, but it was his first game with the national team. He was gigantic and was a real man. I want to wish him the best of success going forward. He\u2019s a great player.\u201d<\/p>\n

Following game two, where Zipper scored 19 points in what was yet another blue-and-white victory 102-67 over Portugal, the games\u2019s MVP Adam Scherbakov who himself scored 24 points and will be attending college in the United Staes said, \u201cHe has surprised everyone, it\u2019s a Cinderella story. I don\u2019t know if you realize this but he came from a 2nd division youth team and I had a chance to play against him in school. He absolutely destroyed us. He has a bright future ahead.\u201d

\nOfek Gol who will be a part of Hapoel Tel Aviv\u2019s squad next year also had high praise for Zipper after the Portugal win, \u201cI\u2019m excited for him. This is his first campaign. He\u2019s a great player and I see a bright future ahead for him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Game three was the huge comeback 89-83 win against France in which Zipper once again was the star of the show checking in with 31 points helping will Israel to the late victory with his showing exploits as the clock wound down, scoring 10 straight points. The fourth game was another victory over Greece win which Zipper added 22 points and the finale, a loss to Estonia and another 26 points from the new darling of Israeli hoops. <\/p>\n

Zipper credited the team\u2019s mental coach Lior Lipshitz for much of his success over the competition, \u201cIt\u2019s great to come out each game and give another great performance. Lior Lipshitz has helped us tremendously, including preparation each and every day. It\u2019s incredible.\u201d

\nHead coach Oren Aharoni who has worked with Israeli youth over the past decade had sound advice for Zipper in order for him to succeed going forward, \u201cZipper has to stay humble and keep himself grounded. Every team went after him throughout the tournament but he was able to overcome that challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for Zipper\u2019s new found fame, the guard made no secret that he this was the highlight of his basketball career to date, \u201cI\u2019m happy for the team as we worked hard for the past two months and it\u2019s all coming together. I\u2019m not used to the attention but it\u2019s great. I don\u2019t know where I will be next season and up until now this is the top of my career but I want more.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s what I have dreamed at night. I\u2019ve worked hard for this and to be here now is just incredible. To any child who wants to succeed, you\u2019ll get there by working hard.\u201d

\nIt\u2019s never easy to get noticed when you are from the periphery of the country and Zipper acknowledged that this in itself is a massive success story, \u201cComing from Ashkelon is really tough. At my first practices it was tough for me to show my abilities but slowly but surely with the help of the professional staff everything came together.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for who Zipper models his game after, the guard compared himself to one of the best shooters the game of basketball has ever seen. \u201cJames Harden, with all of the step-backs and we are both lefties. That\u2019s my role model, despite him never passing the ball,\u201d Zipper said with a laugh.

\nFinally, Yuval Levin who entered the tournament as one of the odds on favorites to be the most valuable player and one who would end up dominating the competition, spoke about the U18\u2019s new star, \u201cHe had a great tournament. He\u2019s a quiet guy and modest, but on the court he\u2019s a killer and takes whatever he can. He gets his teammates involved and does everything on the court. I\u2019m sure he\u2019s going to go far in his career.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Behind The Scenes Story as to how Zipper even made it onto the U18 roster<\/strong>
\nIsrael\u2019s Ron Zipper became the darling of the Under-18 FIBA Challenger Tournament with his superb play and overall game coming out of absolutely nowheres to star for the Blue & White. Many want to know how the guard showed up on the scene and The Sports Rabbi has the exclusive behind the scenes story as to how Zipper made it onto the winning squad. <\/p>\n

Everyone can now see what type of phenomenal shooter and player Ron Zipper is after having captured the Most Valuable Player award but little know the behind the scenes story as to how a young boy from Ashkelon in the periphery even received a chance to star for the country. <\/p>\n

Before the COVID-19 pandemic there were attempts to have Zipper considered for the Under-18 team but nothing came of it, but thanks to former Israeli league player Amir Katz who is also a member of Zipper\u2019s close family the opportunity was set into motion.<\/p>\n

Following futile attempts by Zipper\u2019s father who was unable convince anyone from the National Team program to look at a player from Sport Club Ashkelon, Katz personally spoke to coach Oren Aharoni who had played together in the Israeli league years ago. Katz explained that he didn\u2019t ask Aharoni to do him a favor but to just take a look at Zipper and if he was ok then to give him a chance, if he wasn\u2019t then there would be no harm done. <\/p>\n

Aharoni invited Zipper to come for a tryout and from there the eventual MVP earned his place all by himself and as they say, the rest is history. Katz appreciated Aharoni\u2019s professionalism and the fact that it\u2019s extremely rare to even consider and extend an invitation to a youth league player from the second division, to see if there is potential and to give them an opportunity. He also stated that Aharoni, who will be moving to the Israel Premier League this season from Maccabi Tel Aviv\u2019s youth department, should be a coach that any young player would want to play for and work with down the road. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
