Regular Season Round 14: Juventus - Siauliai 81-93
Date: December 30, 2010
We cannot really consider it an upset in the game between close teams in Utena where 5th ranked Juventus (6-6) was defeated by sixth ranked Siauliai (6-4) 93-81 on Thursday. The game was mostly controlled by Siauliai. Juventus managed to win third quarter 25-23. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They made 20-of-24 free shots (83.3 percent) during the game. Siauliai looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. The best player for the winners was center Vytautas Sarakauskas (204-82) who had a double-double by scoring 24 points and 11 rebounds. Ukrainian center Roman Gumenyuk (221-87) chipped in 18 points and 6 rebounds. The former international forward Aurimas Kieza (202-82, college: Hofstra, agency: Players Group) produced a double-double by scoring 18 points and 11 rebounds and forward Jonas Elvikis (195-82) added 16 points and 5 rebounds respectively for the hosts. Four Juventus players scored in double figures. Both coaches used bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Siauliai has a solid three-game winning streak. They moved-up to fourth place, which they share with Techasas. Juventus lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the sixth position with six games lost. Both teams do not play next round, which will be an opportunity for some rest.
