The Israeli team has officially announced that they have recently recruited Jalen Adams, who last played for Hapoel Jerusalem, on a three-month deal. The 26-year-old American player averaged 15.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists in 26 games for Jerusalem.

A formidable one-on-one player, Jalen Adams (1.91m, 26) spent the first part of the 2020-2021 season in Chalons-Reims, before returning to the United States after seven games, all of which ended in defeats, despite his 20.3 points on average.

Last season, Adams finished top scorer in the Champions League with Hapoel Jerusalem. Enough to convince Maccabi Tel Aviv to hire him. With Darrun Hilliard and Austin Hollins out injured, the Israeli club have opted to sign the former UConn player.

Maccabi Tel Aviv defeated Zalgiris Kaunas in the first-week match of the EuroLeague, and lost to Fenerbahce Beko in the second-week match.
