AEK lost heart, was defeated in Jerusalem and eliminated from the Basketball Champions League Final Four

AEK were unsuccessful in Jerusalem, losing 91-51 to Hapoel and losing 2-1 in the Basketball Champions League Final Four.

Despondent, overworked and a shadow of his good self, AEK was defeated by Hapoel in Game 3 of the Basketball Champions League quarterfinal series (91-51) on Wednesday night (4/19) and eliminated from Final Four of the competition.

The yellow-blacks have struggled in recent days, the already tough Pais Arena was full and hotter than ever and in the final of the evening it was Aleksandar Džikić’s team who deservedly scored the big goal. Levi Randolph was incredible again for Hapoel who drew energy from their home crowd and lifted the trophy.

AEK, on the other hand, had no other player ready for this fight than Brynton Lemar. The yellow-blacks finished the first twenty minutes with five baskets in 27 attempts, they had no creation, no energy to match the intensity and momentum of Hapoel and are now waiting for the fall of 2024 to see people on their field again .

AEK’s first quarter was poor, going 18-7 in the 10th minute said it all. Lemar made two threes and those were the only baskets for the yellow-blacks who found it dark against Hapoel’s dynamic defence. The Israelis went to +19 (33-14 in 15′) with Kanzouris seeing his team on 4/21 shots, they also went to +24 (40-16 in 17′) and ended the twenty minutes with a difference giving them the comfort of thinking that they got the job done early and more.

The picture of the game did not change much at the beginning of the second half. Hapoel didn’t score with the same efficiency, but their defense left AEK no room to believe in a minor basketball miracle. And from 30′, when everything was decided, the difference became bigger and bigger. And it grew as the crowd enjoyed the evening and the yellow-blacks counted down to the end of the nightmare.

In the past, Fraser of Prometheus asked to leave for personal reasons

A blow for Prometheus, because before two weeks had passed since the agreement with Tim Fraser, he had to terminate the contract of the American, who wanted to leave due to a family problem.

Tim Frazier’s second stint in the Stoiximan Basket League was short-lived after Prometheus announced the termination of his contract just 12 days after his acquisition.

As Patrini revealed, the American asked to leave for personal reasons, with Prometheus respecting his wishes.

Frazier managed to play in just one game with the Patriots – in the 68-71 loss to Dijon in the Basketball Champions League, where he had 8 points and 4 assists – with the only positive for Prometheus being no foreigner Stoiximan Basket League was substituted in the Basketball Champions League because he had not included him in his Greek squad.

The announcement in detail:

“KAE Prometheus Patras announces the amicable solution to its collaboration with Tim Frazier, respecting the exceptional family problem that has arisen for the American athlete. We thank him for his offer and wish him all the best for his career.”
