Elijah Bryant's 25 not enough as Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv fall to FC Barcelona

Elijah Bryant carried Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv's offense in a narrow defeat to FC Barcelona, finishing with 25 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist across 28 minutes. The American guard was nearly flawless from the free-throw line, converting all 12 attempts, and shot 6 of 10 from the field to lead his team's scoring effort. Yet his performance could not overcome a three-point margin in a 93–90 loss. Barcelona's road resilience proved decisive in the final moments of a Regular Season contest that turned on marginal execution down the stretch. Bryant's 12 made free throws accounted for half his team's output in points; Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv's supporting cast did not generate enough secondary scoring to match the visitors' depth. The loss underlines a familiar EuroLeague lesson: individual excellence, even at Bryant's level on the night, requires complementary firepower to convert close contests into wins.
