Maccabi did not inform on the number of cases. The Israeli powerhouse had their Winner League game against Ironi Nes Ziona officially postponed to a later date.

Maccabi Tel Aviv have sought to invoke Article 5 which allows for a one-time, unilateral, postponement of a Winner League game. This means that they will not be able to use this clause again.

However, the team coached by Giannis Sfairopoulos are only a few days ahead of the EuroLeague double week, where they will be facing ALBA Berlin, on January 12 and Panathinaikos at the OAKA arena on the 14th.

Right now, it seems very likely that both of these contests will be postponed, especially if more cases are to be found in the team's ranks.
