Hapoel Holon faced Nanterre 92 in the FIBA Basketball Champions League, but lost 87-77. Yotam Hanochi was the leading scorer for the team with 18 points. The game took place in Nanterre, France, and was part of the group stage of the league. Hapoel Holon still advanced to the next stage, thanks to the loss of the Bosnian team Igokea to the German team Würzburg. Guy Goodes, the team's coach, was satisfied with the performance of his players, but emphasized the importance of continuing to work hard. Paul Lacombe, a player for Nanterre 92, was the leading scorer of the game with 23 points. The game was filled with incidents, as a group of pro-Palestinian protesters stormed the court and caused chaos in the stands. The game resumed after a short time, and security was increased to prevent further incidents. The Ministry of Diaspora Affairs had issued a warning regarding the game earlier in the day, including initial indications of a planned protest by groups expected to gather near the arena. These included the pro-Palestinian organization Europalestine and the far-left party La France Insoumise. Nanterre Mayor Raphaël Adam had earlier barred fans from attending the game to prevent public disturbances, but a court overturned that decision on Wednesday morning.
