Regular Season Round 15: Nevezis - Zalgiris 60-74
Date: February 11, 2012
Not a big story in a game when 9th ranked Kedainiai (4-11) was defeated at home by leader Zalgiris (13-0) 74-60. The game was mostly controlled by Zalgiris. Kedainiai was better in third quarter 18-16. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They dominated on the defensive end, holding Kedainiai to just 7 points in second quarter. Zalgiris forced 19 Kedainiai turnovers. It was a good game for the former international guard Mantas Kalnietis (196-86, agency: Interperformances) who led his team to a victory with 13 points. The former international forward Paulius Jankunas (205-84, agency: Interperformances) contributed with 7 points and 7 rebounds for the winners. Center Egidijus Dimsa (205-85) answered with 11 points and 6 rebounds and guard Vytautas Sulskis (200-88, college: Youngstown St.) added 6 points and 7 rebounds in the effort for Kedainiai. Both coaches used bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. The victory was the thirteenth consecutive win for Zalgiris. Defending champion moved-up to second place. Kedainiai at the other side keeps the ninth position with 11 games lost. Zalgiris' next round opponent will be Neptunas (#7) in Klaipeda which should be theoretically an easy game. Kedainiai will play on the road against Sakalai in Vilnius and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
