Mekel was born in Israel, studied in the USA, and started his professional career in his homeland. He was so successful in Israel that after a year in Treviso, he signed a contract with Dallas, becoming the second Israeli (after Omri Casspi) to secure an NBA deal. However, his career in the world’s strongest league did not go as planned, and after one and a half years, Gal returned to Europe. He made his way to Zenit via Nizhny, Crvena Zvezda, Maccabi, and Gran Canaria.
