Israeli Basketball Team Continues NBA Tour Amid Ongoing Conflict at Home

The Israeli team Maccabi Ra'anana arrived in the U.S. for a three-game NBA preseason tour just after deadly attacks by Hamas militants in Israel.
Maccabi Ra'anana coach Yehu Orland lost a close friend in the fighting but still believes the games can bring hope amid tragedy.
The Brooklyn Nets held a moment of silence before playing Maccabi Ra'anana in recognition of lives lost in the conflict.
Some players and fans have expressed mixed feelings about proceeding with the games given the situation in Israel.
Orland says the tour is about creating joy and resilience for Israelis during a difficult time.
