Hapoel Jerusalem announced Thursday they have signed coach Dainius Adomaitis following the departure of Oded Kattash for Panathinaikos. Per Donatas Urbonas reports, the deal will be valid through 2022.
Adomaitis spent the last two years with Rytas Vilnius and this will be his first stint in Israel. The 46-year-old former EuroLeague champion with Zalgiris has also been on the helm of the Lithuanian NT in the recent years and stepped down after the 2019 FIBA World Cup.
Hapoel (2-3) will have to quickly adjust to the change and beat Limoges, then hope for Igokea (3-2) to lose against Turk Telekom on the last Basketball Champions League Gameday of the regular season.
