Israel Situation Delays BC Kalev/Cramo FIBA Cup Opening Match

The opening match of the Estonian basketball team BC Kalev/Cramo in the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) Europe Cup has been rescheduled due to security concerns in Israel. Originally, the Tallinn-based Kalev/Cramo was set to face the Israel-based team, Ironi Hai Motors Nes-Ziona, away next Wednesday.

The FIBA Europe Cup is an annual professional club basketball competition organized by FIBA for eligible European clubs.

FIBA Europe has announced that matches involving all Israeli basketball clubs will be postponed indefinitely due to the situation which began Saturday with attacks from the Gaza Strip by terror organization Hamas, which have been described as "unprecedented."

The decision affects five Israeli teams, competing both in the EuroCup Women and the FIBA ​​Europe Cup.

"FIBA ​​Europe is working with the Israeli Basketball Association and all of the teams and is monitoring the situation, with the safety of all as the main priority. New game times will be announced as soon as the situation allows," the FIBA statement read.

Other teams affected in Europe include Italian team New Basket Brindisi, for whom Estonian Joonas Riisma plays as a small forward.

FIBA Europe has not provided details about the specific alterations to the game calendar at this time. One possible scenario is maintaining the existing schedule while removing Israeli clubs. If this option is chosen, BC Kalev/Cramo will commence the Euroseries with two consecutive Group F home games. The first matchup would be against Brindisi on October 25, followed by a game against Spain's Basket Zaragoza on November 1.
