Date: September 26, 2012
An interesting game took place in Palanga where Naglis Palangos (0-1) was upset on its own court by Zalgiris (1-0) 101-59 on Wednesday. The game was mostly controlled by Zalgiris. Naglis Palangos managed to win fourth quarter 15-11. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Zalgiris dominated down low during the game scoring 72 of its points in the paint compared to Naglis Palangos' 44. Zalgiris forced 20 Naglis Palangos turnovers and outrebounded them 50-25 including a 32-13 advantage in defensive rebounds. Zalgiris looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. International forward Mindaugas Kuzminskas (205-89) fired a double-double by scoring 18 points and 12 rebounds for the winners. Croatian power forward Mario Delas (207-90) chipped in 18 points and 5 rebounds. Zalgiris' coach Joan Plaza felt very confident that he used entire bench saving starting five for next games. American forward Marcus Relphorde (200-88, college: Colorado) produced 20 points and 6 rebounds and guard Mantas Mockevicius (189-93, college: Olney Central CC) added 15 points respectively for lost side. Zalgiris will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Naglis Palangos will play against Rudupis in Prienai and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
