Having already notched five wins from their five group games, Tommy O’Mahony’s side eased past their Eastern European opponents on Thursday night and waltzed into their quarter-final draw.

You can watch all of the action on the live stream below.

Speaking to Basketball Ireland's official website ahead of the game, O'Mahony said that Isreal's attacking capabilities would pose a new threat.

They [Israel] are really tough. They have a lot of guards and a lot of shooters – they like to shoot the three in transition. We’ll have to work on our defence, big time.

We always talk about sharing the ball and taking the right option and when other teams are scouting us, there’s no one player who dominates the scoring.
