The Israeli backcourt core has finally shown his strength. Will he still have a chance to join the Celtics in the future?

In a previous group match between the men's basketball European Championship, the Italian team defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina 96-79. After this game, the Italian team, which won two consecutive victories, improved its record to 2 wins and 1 loss, and its ranking also rose to third place in the group; while the Bosnia and Herzegovina team's record dropped to 1 win and 2 losses, and its ranking also dropped to 4th place in the group.

In this game, Israel's starting point guard Yam Madar performed quite well. Madal played 24 minutes and 22 seconds in the game, made 7 of 15 shots, 2 of 6 from outside the three-point line, and 1 of 1 free throw, scoring 17 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, and 1 turnover and 4 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +16. Madal found his touch on the offensive end in this game. He scored a lot of points in various ways, provided a lot of help and support to the team on the offensive end, and also showed his comprehensive scoring ability. Madal also has certain passing ability and organizational ability, and his performance on the defensive end is also very outstanding. Overall, Madal has played his own characteristics and he can also provide a lot of help and support to the team. In this game, Israel's ability to defeat strong opponents without being favored is also closely related to Madal's outstanding performance. Since the start of the European Championship, Madal has averaged 27.6 minutes in the first three games, with averaging 10.3 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, and 1.7 turnovers and 3 fouls. His shooting percentage is 36.7%, three-point shooting percentage is 28.6%, and his free throw percentage is 83.3%, and his plus-negative value is +12.3. Madal's performance in the previous two games was not ideal. His scoring ability was not displayed, his offensive efficiency was very average, and he had no touch outside the three-point line. However, he can play a good role in passing and organizing, and his performance on the defensive end is also worthy of recognition. The team's situation is also quite good when he is on the court. Madal also found his touch on the offensive end in this game, which is also a good signal.

Madal was born in December 2000 and is 24 years old, 191cm tall and weighs 82kg. He is the backcourt player selected by the Boston Celtics in the 47th pick in the second round in the 2020 NBA Draft. Madal actually performed well in the European arena. His performance in the Bundesliga last season was not ideal, but after returning to the Israeli League and joining Hapoel Tel Aviv, his performance was also quite good and could have a certain effect. Madal is also quite important to the Israeli team, and he is also the team's backcourt core. If he can maintain this level, Israel may become a potential dark horse during this European Championship?
