Hapoel has enjoyed a four-game winning surge behind the second-best offense in the league (95 points per game), powered by the red-hot Jaylen Hoard (17.6 points per game). Trying to stop him will be Reyer forward Aamir Simms, who has averaged 12 points over his last six games, and Alexander O’Connell after he netted 13 points with just one miss last week against Paris.
Neven Spahija, Venice head coach
"Another super tough game, another road game. Third in a row for us. Hapoel is an amazing good team, especially on offense. We have to do many things to stop them, but I would like us to continue to improve on our offense and defense in order to do as well as possible."
