Date: May 3, 2017
Rather expected game when 10th ranked Maccabi Ashdod (12-18) lost at home to seventh ranked Maccabi Rishon (16-14) 91-74. It looked good early as Maccabi Ashdod took a 5-point small lead at the end of first quarter. But then Maccabi Rishon had a 29-15 second period charge getting the lead and Maccabi Ashdod was not able to take back game control losing it eventually 74-91. Maccabi Rishon dominated down low during the game scoring 62 of its points in the paint compared to Maccabi Ashdod's 40. Maccabi Rishon forced 19 Maccabi Ashdod turnovers. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 25 assists. The best player for the winners was international power forward Idan Zalmanson (206-95) who scored 16 points and 7 rebounds. American swingman Patrick Richard (196-90, college: McNeese St., agency: Inception Sports) chipped in 17 points and 5 assists (on 7-of-8 shooting from the field). Four Maccabi Rishon players scored in double figures. At the other side the best for losing team was the former international Jake Cohen (208-90, college: Davidson) who recorded 18 points and 9 rebounds and American Chase Simon (201-89, college: Detroit Mercy, agency: Three Eye Sports) added 22 points and 5 rebounds respectively. Both coaches tested many bench players and allowed the starting five to get some rest. Maccabi Rishon have an impressive five-game winning streak. Defending champion moved-up to fifth place, which they share with Hapoel J-M and Ironi Nahariya. Maccabi Ashdod at the other side dropped to the eleventh position with 18 games lost. Maccabi Rishon's next round opponent will be higher ranked Maccabi T-A (#3) in Tel-Aviv and it may be quite challenging game. Maccabi Ashdod will play on the road against Galil Gilboa (#9) in Rosh Pina and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
