Triples released this season
“We have seen that it is difficult for him to get involved in the team’s game, and we did not expect it,” said club director Eimantas Skersis. – We sat and talked about how there is no point waiting for something, but it is better that both sides turn in different ways
We have no complaints about the player’s work ethic, just standing out would be a better solution than continuing to work. We now have ten days before the next official match, so we will try to fill the gap. “
Artis Betsafe – managed to play six games in the LKL championship, during which he spent 19.5 minutes on the field, scored 6.3 points (44.4% from two points, 22.2% from three points, 88.9% from penalties), recovered 3.7 balls each and scored 6 utility points each.
The club has already started looking for a change for the outgoing American. According to Skers, a rookie won’t necessarily be a player in the same position.
“It just came to our notice then. Ignas Vaitkus and Gintautas Matulis are in third position, so I would definitely not rule out that we will try to invite a real player to the team.
We make too many mistakes during the match and we think a real player could help us solve this problem. I’m not saying it’s really going to be the case that a player comes, but this is one of the thoughts, “said Skersis.
The people of Utena will return to the LKL battles on December 1 and meet the basketball players of Kėdainiai “Nevėžis-Optibet”.
