Three points did not fall, they created Pikenrolus He had a bad time, but Walkup responded to the rivals with physicality, caused 5 fouls and was the most productive player on the team with 12 points. However, the most beautiful words for Thomas are not for attack, but for work on defense. Walkup kept Kevin Pangas in his pocket every game, who made a mistake 6 times, and Žalgiris took 4 balls.
Rokas Jokubaitis – 7 points
21 min., 8 p. (3/7 dvit., 0/1 trit., 2/4 pun.), 3 atm. cam., 2 res. more than 0 pages, 6 pages pr., 11 benefits points.

Rokas came into the game very well, took advantage of the vitality of Vitalijus Fridzonas and was one of Žalgiris’ greatest lights in the first half of the game. After the break, Jokubaitis was less noticeable, but he remained aggressive and improved his personal record of provoked offenders in the Euroleague. On defense, the Lithuanian also successfully contributed to the supervision of Pangos for a time, only memorizing the episode from the first part, when Rokas got too involved in assists and opponents punished him with three points.
Lukas Lekavičius – 7 rooms
17 min, 11 pm (3/5 dvit., 1/2 trit., 2/2 baud.), 2 rez. trans., 1 cf., 3 sec. pr., 12 benefits points.

Lekavičius’ exit was very difficult: stopping the attacks, two quick fouls, one of which bonuso in the situation beyond the triple, and less than three minutes spent in the square before the break. In the second half of the match, we saw a completely different Luke, who with his advances and Floateriais kept Žalgiris in the fight, scoring 8 of the Lithuanian champions’ first 15 points.
Marius Grigonis – 6 rooms
27 min., 10 p. (3/7 dvit., 1/4 trit., 1/1 baud.), 2 rez. more, 2 pcs., 6 us. points.

Difficult game for Grigonis, to which the rivals paid special attention on defense. In the first half of the match, Marius got too involved in discussions with the referees that got him out of the crayfish. Mateušas Ponitka offered great contact to Grigonis throughout the match, and a pair of lost triples from good positions also contributed to the non-special performance. It was not a very bad Lithuanian match, but this year Grigonis has spoiled “Žalgiris” fans with much better performances.
Joffrey Lauvergne’as – 5 broom
24 min., 11 p. (5/7 dvit., 1/1 baud.), 2 atm. cam., 2 res. more, 2 pages, 5 times, 8 uses points.

There is a tendency for traditional rival centers to dominate against Lauvergne, and Artūras Gudaitis’ performance has become an exception. The Frenchman seemed confused on defense, where not only did he not resist his direct opponent, but also made poor decisions in the aid of the team. Zenit practically wiped out effective Kaunas residents picenrole with Joffrey, but still managed to score a double-digit number of points, successfully completing the attack with the game back to the basket a couple of times.
Artūras Milaknis – 5 points
22 min., 6 p. (0/1 dvit., 2/3 trit.), 1 kld., 3 us. points.

Milaknis rushed in once with two points, but even in a duel where there was very little transition and the sniper also lacked any special combinations, the veteran scored two triples. However, perhaps Arthur stayed on the pitch for too long, since he didn’t get a chance to attack. On defense, a couple of times, Žalgiris did not face Ponitka, who was faster and physically stronger than him.
Nigelas Hayesas – 4 balai
25 min., 3 min. (0/2 dvit., 1/4 trit.), 3 atk. kam., 2 by. kam., 3 naud. balai.

This is not a Nigel match. In attack, the basketball player was completely unnoticed until the fourth quarter, when he fired a shot from afar. And that was all that Hayes managed to create useful for the rivals’ basket. There were also delays in the team’s defense, costing Žalgiris points and was one of the American’s worst performances after a long break.
Martin Geben – 4 points
8 min., 0 pts. (0/2 dvit.), 4 atm. cam., 2 lost, 1 use. Punctuation.

In no time, 4 rebounds in attack are really solid, but in one of the episodes Geben overcame and cost Žalgiris’ basket two free throws. Martin wasn’t much of a help defensively, his energy-consuming forward runs proved quite costly in the oppressive heat.
Agustín as Rubitas – 3 balai
15 min., 4 p. (2/6 dvit.), 2 atm. cam., 3 losses, -1 use. Punctuation.

Rubit was tried to exploit Pikenpopais against Gudaitis, which is logical, but the pitches did not drop by a good percentage, and the basketball player was no longer too different. Fighting for the ball in attack, Augustine made a mistake similar to Geben’s, breaking the rules. bonuso situation.
Paulius Jankūnas – 2 points
19 min., 0 tšk. (0/2 dvit.), 4 atk. kam., 2 kld., -1 naud. bullets.

It seemed that the events in the arena “Sibur” were too fast for Jankūnas, and the rivals were too physical. The captain not only missed both shots, but also intervened after a long time, and in the last quarter he did not catch a very good pass, where there had to be two guaranteed points.
