After adding Joe Ragland, Guy Palatin, Oz Blayzer, Johnathan Motley, and Noam Yaacov, Hapoel Shlomo Tel Aviv made three signings in a day.

As officially announced by the Israeli club, Ben Bentil, Marcus Foster, and Miron Ruina joined Stefanos Dedas’ side.

Former Panathinaikos, Olimpia Milano, and Crvena Zvezda player Ben Bentil, who spent last season in Japan with Gunma Crane Thunders, returns to European basketball to play in the BKT EuroCup with Hapoel on a two-year deal. He averaged 17 points and 5.5 rebounds in the Japanese league before joining the Israeli team.

The experienced Marcus Foster started the past season with the Chinese team Shandong but finished it with Rytas Vilnius, where he won the Lithuanian championship and was named the Finals MVP. He already worked with coach Dedas in Hapoel Holon, where he shined with impressive averages of 20.2 points per game. Foster also played in the EuroLeague with Panathinaikos and wore the jersey of Turk Telekom Ankara.

Last but not least, Miron Ruina played last season with Hapoel Galil Elyon, averaging 5.1 points and 5.9 rebounds. The Finnish-Israeli power forward also played for Hapoel Eilat and Hapoel Gilboa Galil in recent years.
