Professional career
Born in Safed, Israel, Ohayon started his career in Hapoel Galil Elyon, with whom he won the Israeli youth league championship. In the 2006–07 season, he led Hapoel Galil Elyon to the Israeli final four, with the team ultimately finishing in third place. In the 2007–08 season, Ohayon was the Ligat Winner's top stealer with 2 steals per game. He is also known as a skillful passer. In July 2011 he signed a three-year deal with Maccabi Tel Aviv.[1]
In the summer of 2012, Ohayon went to Russia on the medical test before signing a contract with Lokomotiv Kuban without informing Maccabi with whom he still had contract. Ohayon was not allowed to sign for any other team before buying out his agreement for around 200,000 USD.[2] However, on September 19, 2012, FIBA ruled in favor of Maccabi Tel Aviv after team sued Ohayon to FIBA. If Ohayon wants to leave Maccabi Tel Aviv, Lokomotiv Kuban would have to reach an agreement on a buyout with his former club.[3] However, Ohayon reached a deal with Maccabi and agreed a new three-year contract with the team.[4]
