Maccabi suspended Carlos Arroyo


Maccabi Electra Tel Aviv announced Thursday that point guard Carlos Arroyo(1.86-PG/SG) has been suspended from the club until further notice. In an official press release, the club stated that the suspension was due to "inappropriate behavior." Arroyo did not practice with the team on Thursday. 

Maccabi is just one week ahead of its most crucial game of the season, at home against Real Madrid in Week 4 of the Top 16. After a 19-point loss in Madrid, Maccabi is looking for revenge and a win with a margin sufficient enough to hold the potential tiebreaker advantage at the end of this stage. In 12 Euroleague games thus far, the guard from Puerto Rico averaged 13.6 points and 4.4 assists per game.
