New lines are being drawn in the career of D. Sirvydis.
The 20-year-old basketball player has not signed up for the Israeli league since last year and will likely be leaving the Jerusalem team soon, Israeli portal one.co.il warned last week.
It could be an opportunity to try and jump into the NBA, where the action will start soon.
Last year, D. Sirvydis was named to the NBA club’s rookie stock exchange at number 37, and the Lithuanian rights belong to the Detroit Pistons.
Due to the pandemic, this year’s NBA Rookie Exchange will only take place on November 18, but official agreements between NBA clubs and basketball players will begin in two days.
The NBA Championship is scheduled to begin before Christmas and training camps will begin on December 1.

Last May, Sirvydis moved to the Jerusalem Club, when he paid 190,000 to Rytas. exchange of euros.
This is the biggest bailout in the history of the Jerusalem club, but since the deal’s inception it has been said that Hapoel executives have ties to the Pistons (former Israeli club co-owner Arn Tellem is now among the Pistons executives and his son Michael Tellem is Sirvydis agent behind Atlantic), so Hapoel may win multiple times if the Pistons buy the young Lithuanian basketball player for the NBA club’s usual 750,000. dollar ransom.
Sirvydis made his debut at Jerusalem Club last July, but played little in the sequel to the last Israel Championship, and the FIBA Champions League sequel Hapoel ended in the quarterfinals in September, where the Lithuanian in 12 minutes . scored 3 points.
This season, between several official Hapoel matches, coach Oded Katash released Lithuania for just two FIBA Champions League matches, in which he played for 10 minutes. minutes and scored 0.5 points.
The Jerusalem team has also signed a contract with Chris Kramer, another former Ryto player. The role of the American player is more pronounced, but the Israeli press is considering that the club can also stand out with him.
