Date: April 10, 2012
No shocking result in a game in Klaipeda where seventh ranked Neptunas (9-12) defeated bottom-ranked Naglis Palangos (4-17) 109-101. The hosts were ahead by 13 points but lost the second period ending it with a 4-point deficit before their 34-22 run, which allowed them to win the game. Neptunas made 29-of-37 charity shots (78.4 percent) during the game. Neptunas outrebounded Naglis Palangos 42-22 including a 30-16 advantage in defensive rebounds. 30 personal fouls committed by Naglis Palangos helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Forward Laurynas Mikalauskas (205-85, college: Virginia) notched a double-double by scoring 26 points and 11 rebounds to lead the effort and the former international point guard Evaldas Dainys (180-82, college: Cent.Florida CC) supported him with 19 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. Neptunas' coach Paulius Juodis allowed to play the deep bench players saving starting five for next games. Even a double-double of 25 points and 10 rebounds by American center Dane Johnson (208-86, college: Hofstra) did not help to save the game for Naglis Palangos. His fellow American import guard Rico Pickett (192-89, college: Manhattan) added 21 points and 4 steals for lost side. Four Neptunas and five Naglis Palangos players scored in double figures. Neptunas have a solid four-game winning streak. They moved-up to sixth place, which they share with Baltai Kaunas. Naglis Palangos lost third consecutive game.
