While it promises to be an exciting game, the two teams will be looking at the game from very different perspectives: while Maccabi will be wanting to prove to their fans and themselves that their season is still alive after a crushing 67-86 to AS Monaco last Thursday night, which will have to be done without Jalen Adams, who looks set to miss the rest of the season injured, Fener comes into the game riding a three-game winning streak and with an eye on tightening its hold on a top-four finish.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey not only have a high-quality roster, but also their depth both in their front court and in their backcourt,\u201d Maccabi coach Oded Katash said of his opponents ahead of the game. \u201cFrom our perspective, you look at their roster with jealousy, it really doesn\u2019t end. They have a lot of experience, a lot of quality. It\u2019s not only about stopping their guards: their inside players know how to play and they have good forwards.

Josh Nebo, who has been underwhelming in recent weeks, was Maccabi\u2019s best player, finishing with 12 points and 9 rebounds in just under 22 minutes. On the other side, Fener had contributions across the board, including from Calathes (a near triple-double, with 13 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists), Motley (15 points and 6 rebounds) and Marko Guduric (23 points and 6 rebounds). Overall, Fener won the rebound count in the game, which is something that Maccabi will need to win tonight.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_77399\" style=\"width: 1136px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77399\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/476FE1DC-0548-4431-AA65-5FB003D750E8-e1674164358904.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1126\" height=\"563\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/476FE1DC-0548-4431-AA65-5FB003D750E8-e1674164358904.jpeg 1126w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/476FE1DC-0548-4431-AA65-5FB003D750E8-e1674164358904-610x305.jpeg 610w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/476FE1DC-0548-4431-AA65-5FB003D750E8-e1674164358904-300x150.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/476FE1DC-0548-4431-AA65-5FB003D750E8-e1674164358904-768x384.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/476FE1DC-0548-4431-AA65-5FB003D750E8-e1674164358904-1080x540.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1126px) 100vw, 1126px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-77399\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wade Baldwin and Oded Katash &#8211; Photo Credit: Dov Halickman<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n\u201cIn the second set of games against teams you always look at the first game between the teams, which was not as good from our point of view, but it only makes us miss Alex more \u2013 we are missing his quality, his experience and his defense,\u201d Katash said. \u201cIt\u2019s not only [Tonye] Jekiri, but it\u2019s Motley and it\u2019s [Devin] Booker.
