In the Israeli Basketball Premier League game against Hapoel Holon, which Maccabi lost with a score of 82-76, Dibartolomeo suffered a blow to his shoulder and sustained an injury.

Team head coach Oded Kattash stated that they will wait for updates from the medical staff to evaluate Dibartolomeo's situation and see if he can suit up for Game 5 vs. Panathinaikos AKTOR Athens.

A mainstay of Maccabi, Dibartolomeo always had an important role in the team's rotation, upgraded after Wade Baldwin's injury in the playoff series against Panathinaikos.

In the event that Dibartolomeo is also absent for Game 5, Maccabi will have to rely on names such as Lorenzo Brown and Tamir Blatt to make up for the injury-prone guard rotation of the team.

Against Hapoel Holon, Dibartolomeo had 12 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists. He also played a crucial role in the Game 4 loss to PAO, where he recorded 10 points and 2 rebounds in 14 minutes of playing time.
