According to Omri Manhime of Sport 5, Hilliard will rejoin Maccabi's training sessions and is expected to be on the 12-man roster for Maccabi's next EuroLeague game against Valencia Basket on Thursday.

The Israeli powerhouse suspended Hilliard after his tweet following the domestic league loss to Hapoel Jerusalem, 75-80.

The suspension provoked many reactions on social media, with EuroLeague stars providing their view on the entire situation.

Hilliard, 29, is averaging 4.8 points, 1.7 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 4.3 PIR over six EuroLeague games this season.

He has already missed a month of basketball action due to a knee injury (a partial tear to his MCL).
