Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem has added promising Israeli guard Roy Paretsky on a one-year deal for the 2025-26 season.
Paretsky (1.94 meters, 22 years old) is the team’s first domestic signing of the summer. He arrives from Elitzur Briga Netanya, where he average 8.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals per game last season. Paretsky began his career with Elitzur Netanya and went on to shine at Hapoel Be’er Sheva, where he was named the 2023 Israeli League rising star. He has played for the Israeli national team at the junior and senior levels, including the U20 team that finished fourth at the 2022 European Championship.
“Roy will bring us a lot of defensive toughness and his offensive potential is sky-high,” Coach Yonatan Alon said. “He has size and tools that are very hard to find in Israeli guards – or anywhere. I’m excited to have him with us and I’m sure our fans will love his hunger and willingness to do whatever it takes for the team.”
“I’m really excited to join Hapoel,” Paretsky said. “It’s a dream for any young player to be part of such a high-level team and club. I’ll give everything I’ve got to help the team succeed, grow and win as many titles as possible together with our amazing fans. I’m proud we’ve joined forces. Now the sky’s the limit. Yalla Hapoel!”
