Regular Season Round 5: PAOK - Lietuvos rytas 81-76

Date: November 11, 2015
Everything could happen in Thessaloniki at the game between two tied teams. Both fifth ranked Greek PAOK and 4th placed Lithuanian Lietuvos rytas had identical 1-3 record. This time PAOK used a home court advantage and beat the opponent from Vilnius 81-76 on Wednesday night. Lietuvos rytas were trailing by 7 points at halftime but managed to get 2-point lead after three quarters before a 26-19 charge of PAOK, which allowed them to win the game. They made 26-of-31 free shots (83.9 percent) during the game, while Lietuvos rytas only scored five points from the stripe. It was a great shooting night for PAOK especially from behind the arc, where they had solid 55.0 percentage. Lietuvos rytas were plagued by 32 personal fouls down the stretch. The best player for the winners was swingman Kostas Vasiliadis (200-84) who scored 26 points and 8 rebounds (was perfect 13-for-13 from the free throw line !!!). American point guard Wiliam Hatcher (188-84, college: Miami, OH) chipped in 17 points and 5 assists. Center Ksistof Lavrinovic (209-79) produced a double-double by scoring 13 points and 10 rebounds and forward Deividas Gailius (200-88) added 17 points and 5 rebounds respectively for the guests. Lietuvos rytas' coach tried various players' combinations and tested in total eleven players in this game, but that didn't help. PAOK (2-3) moved-up to fourth place in Group E. Lietuvos rytas lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the fifth position with four games lost. PAOK will face bottom-ranked Szolnok (#6) in Szolnok in the next round. Lietuvos rytas will play on the road against Besiktas in Istanbul and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
