Very important is a road loss of third ranked Lietuvos rytas (8-4) against fourth ranked Neptunas (9-3) on Saturday night. Visiting Lietuvos rytas was defeated by Neptunas in a tough game in Klaipeda 76-81. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Lietuvos rytas. Neptunas had a 29-18 advantage in offensive rebounds. Lietuvos rytas was plagued by 24 personal fouls down the stretch. It was a good game for Colombian-Spanish power forward Juan Palacios (206-85) who led his team to a victory with a double-double by scoring 19 points and 10 rebounds. Arnas Butkevicius (197-92) contributed with 7 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists for the winners.
