Date: February 24, 2014
The game between closely ranked teams ended with sixth ranked Zalgiris' (10-4) home victory over 7th ranked Juventus (9-14) 85-71 on Monday. The game was mostly controlled by Zalgiris. Juventus was better in second period 23-16. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They outrebounded Juventus 46-35 including 32 on the defensive glass. The former international center Robertas Javtokas (210-80, college: Arizona) scored 15 points and 9 rebounds to lead the charge for the winners and the former international Paulius Jankunas (203-84, agency: Alti Sport) chipped in 9 points and 12 rebounds during the contest. Four Zalgiris players scored in double figures. Zalgiris' coach Saulius Stombergas used entire bench which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. At the losing side forward Saulius Kulvietis (203-91) responded with 23 points and 5 rebounds and American forward AJ Matthews (216-89, college: Farmingdale St.) scored 18 points, 5 rebounds and 4 blocks. Zalgiris have a solid three-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains sixth position with 10-4 record. Loser Juventus keeps the seventh place with 14 games lost. Zalgiris will have a break next round. Juventus will play on the road against Nevezis (#9) in Kedainiai and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
