Paris Requesting Postponement of Hapoel Game Due to Travel Restrictions

Paris is requesting a postponement of their Euroleague game against Hapoel Tel Aviv, scheduled for January 9th as part of the 21st round. The French team cites a Euroleague regulation concerning 'double weeks,' requiring direct flights and a maximum travel time of 90 minutes. According to "Israel Hayom," Paris is firm in its request, explaining to the Euroleague that there are no direct flights from Paris to Israel on January 7th, the planned departure date for the team. The only available option is a flight via Cyprus, which does not meet the regulation's requirements. Euroleague is considering the request and may reschedule the game.
