Everyone wants to draft this Israeli phenom, from the IDF to the NBA!

Deni Avdija, 19, is a forward for Maccabi Tel Aviv. So far he has won an MVP title and two gold medals in international tournaments. He is expected to be a top pick in the 2020 NBA draft.

While the Israeli basketball season is on hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic, he was drafted by the IDF. Once drafted into the NBA he will serve the rest of his service as an “exceptional athlete” in North America.

HELP ISRAELIS BATTLE CORONA!

Donate to the Corona Emergency Relief Fund. Coronavirus has taken a huge toll on the people of Israel. The poor, elderly and ill are most vulnerable.

Israeli soldiers, security officers and medical care providers operate under great danger and risk to life.

Over 1 million Israelis are out of work. Many cannot make ends meet. We provide financial aid, food, medical supplies and more. Funds are distributed where needed most. The time to act is now!

United with Israel extends a special note of appreciation to the Genesis Prize for their generous support.
