Nevėžis-Optibet started the season impressively. Residents of Kėdainiai, who performed the “Milk Stars” on the trip, will go home on Thursday. 76:70 (25:16, 17:14, 19:18, 15:22) killed Panevėžys Raincoat, who was considered one of the favorites.

This is the second consecutive victory for Nevėžis-Optibet this season for Betsafe-LKL. Along with Vilnius “Rytas” and Kaunas “Žalgiris”, the residents of Kėdainiai remain undefeated. Meanwhile, last year’s bronze medalist Lietkabelis, somewhat unexpectedly, after two rounds, no victories.

The solo exhibition “Nevėžis-Optibet” was organized by Vaidas Kariniauskas. The player scored 11 points in the first half alone. The 26-year-old Lithuanian finished the game with 26 points, bounced 4 balls, had 5 assists and scored 28 utility points.

V.Kariniauskas improved his personal and this season’s Betsafe-LKL record. This is the most useful match of a player’s career.

Paulius Valinskas scored 20 points and scored 20 utility points for Lietkabel.

The people of Panevėžys really lacked a safer legionnaire game. Marinas Maričius scored 5 points and scored 7 utility points in 16 minutes, but only managed a free throw from four. Kyle Vinales has 11 points (5/16 years) and 1 utility score.

Nevėžis-Optibet greatly benefited from a more solid two-point shot. The winners scored two points by 54 percent. accuracy, while Lietkabelis found it difficult to scratch both the colon (48%) and the three points (34%).

The K dedainiai people came in very quickly and proved that a surprise at Pasvalys was not a coincidence. V.Kariniauskas, like a knife, cut the defense of Lietkabelis and scored 11 points for Nevėžis (16: 4).

Lietkabelis was stuck in both positional and quick attacks. Nenad Chanak’s students, who made 9 mistakes before the break, relied mainly on the services of P. Valalskas and Troy Barnies. Lack of diversity led to low hitting percentages (35 percent shooting after 2 halves).

The inefficiency of Panevėžys’s middle forwards was particularly hungry. M.Maricius scored a point in the first half (on 4 attempts) and Gabrielius Maldūnas added two.

Meanwhile, a V. Kariniauskas men’s orchestra was playing in Nevėžis-Optibet. The player scored as many as 19 points and 22 utility points in the first two halves, and his team pushed ahead firmly: 42:30.

Vaidas did not need the contribution of his teammates: Panagiotis Kalaitzakis was fifth behind him.

After the break, Nevėžis-Optibet seemed determined to flee further (46:30), but the guests had no intention of raising their weapons and reducing the delay. In difficult times, the tandem of G. Maldūnas and K. Vinales helped a lot, reducing Nevėžis-Optibet’s lead to 5 points (51:46).

However, Nevėžis-Optibet found ways to respond to Lietkabelis’ impulse. Julius Kazakauskas showed strength under the basket, P. Kalaitzakis played very well and before the last quarter “Nevėžis-Optibet” again kept a safe distance (61:48).

In the fourth quarter, the situation only got worse for Lietkabel. V. Kariniauskas put Nevėžis-Optibet ahead with an 18-point lead (71:53). P.Valinskas tried to save “Lietkabelis”.

The defender scored 11 points in a row, but that was all the Panevėžys people could squeeze out of: Nevėžis-Optibet earned a well deserved victory.

Nevėžis-Optibet: Vaidas Kariniauskas 26 (4 chap. Rev., 5 res., 28 helpful votes), Julius Kazakauskas 12 (7 rev.), Panagiotis Kalaitzakis 11.

Waterproof: Paulius Valinskas 20 (4/8 trit., 8/9 years penalty), Troy Barnies 12, Kyle Vinales 11 (5/16 years, 1 benefit), Gytis Masiulis 10.
