In the Lithuanian Basketball League (Betsafe-LKL), Šiauliai (6/17) did not surprise, after landing in Kaunas Žalgiris (18/2) – 74: 88 (9:19, 14:25, 34:24, 17:20).
Thanks to the individually accumulated points of Joffrey Lauvergne, “Žalgiris” went away 11: 5, although Arminas Urbutis reduced the difference with fines, Mindaugas Lukauskis also hit – 9:11. It was the tall people who pushed Žalgiris forward (15: 9) and finally half finished with a result 19: 9.
“Žalgiris” continued to dominate (26:11), 3s were scored by Karolis Lukošiūnas, Marekas Blaževičius was also in the squad and Martynas Varnas’ long throws did little to comfort Šiauliai – 18:34. Steve Vasturia and Thomas Walkup further increased the lead, and after the second quarter, Žalgiris’ superiority raised no doubt. 44:23.
