European Champion to Face Orlando

Maccabi Tel Aviv who won the Euroleague the last couple of years will be competing against the Orlando Magic in an exhibition game which will be held on Thursday in Florida. Maccabi is coming off an impressive win over the Toronto Raptors.

This time around, the visiting team from Israel will be facing much stiffer competition in the form of Steve Francis, Dwight Howard and Hedo Turkoglu. Unfortunately for basketball fans in Israel, Maccabi will not face the other Florida team, the Miami Heat.

It?s still unclear whether or not Grant Hill would be able to play in the game on Thursday. For Anthony Parker, who plays for Maccabi it would be homecoming celebration, having played with the team at the beggining of his career.
