Regular Season Round 16: Juventus - Lietuvos rytas 70-96

Date: February 18, 2012
Leader Lietuvos rytas delivered the fifteenth victory on Saturday night. This time they crushed 8th ranked Juventus (6-12) 96-70 in Utena. The game was mostly controlled by Lietuvos rytas. Juventus managed to win fourth quarter 24-22. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They dominated on the defensive end, holding Juventus to just 6 points in first quarter. Lietuvos rytas made 19-of-22 free shots (86.4 percent) during the game. They outrebounded Juventus 38-19 including a 28-14 advantage in defensive rebounds. Lietuvos rytas looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. Worth to mention a quality performance of international center Jonas Valanciunas (210-92) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 18 points and 10 rebounds (made all of his eight free throws) and the former international forward Mindaugas Katelynas (206-83, college: Chattanooga) who added 12 points during the contest. Five Lietuvos rytas players scored in double figures. At the losing side the former international forward Zydrunas Urbonas (198-76) responded with 15 points and the former international point guard Gediminas Maceina (188-84) scored 6 points and 5 assists. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Lietuvos rytas have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 15-2 record. Loser Juventus keeps the eighth place with 12 games lost. Lietuvos rytas will meet Lietkabelis (#11) in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Juventus will have a break next round.
