The Lebanese Club Al-Hikma will host this evening (9:45 p.m. Beirut time) its counterpart, the Beirut First Club, in the fourth match of the semi-final series of the Lebanese Basketball Championship. Al-Hikma leads the series with two victories. one for Beirut, and if he wins today, he will guarantee access to the final, and will thus await the winner of the other semi-final between The Athletic and Homenetmen.
Al-Hikma defeated Beirut in the first away match with a score of (97-92), before coming back and losing at home in the second match with a score of (101-105). In the third match, Al-Hikma won in Chiyah with a score of (107 – 90).
Al-Hikma coach Jad Al-Hajj and his players want to settle the series today and guarantee a ticket to the final on the Ghazir Stadium field and in front of a large audience that will accompany the team. Coach Al-Hajj relies on his foreign players, notably playmaker Jonathan Gibson, author of deadly triples, as well as Clay Anthony Early, author of 40 points in the last match, and Nick Rakocevic.
The match will not be easy and Beirut coach Joe Ghattas has nothing to lose, so he will enter the match with the intention of winning and forcing a decisive match at home in Beirut. Ghattas will rely on a solid defense from Johnny Hamilton, with Ali Haidar present under the basket. The most important point if Beirut wants to achieve a victory in Ghazir is to stop Hekma players from the three-point line, especially the foreign players who scored 70 points out of 107 in the last match.
