01 · THE DISPATCH

Hapoel Jerusalem made the signing official on Monday afternoon, confirming a two-year contract for Sasha Obradović as head coach. The announcement comes after the club had denied such reports earlier in the season. Obradović, one of the most decorated European coaches in recent years, led Monaco to the EuroLeague Final Four and has won domestic league and cup titles in France (with Monaco), Germany (with Bayern Munich), and Russia (with Lokomotiv Kuban). His arrival marks a significant upgrade for the Israeli team, which has been seeking a top-tier coach to build for the coming seasons.
