Regular Season Round 25: Palanga - Lietkabelis-2 70-66

Date: January 15, 2016
Very predictable result when fifth ranked Palanga (15-10) defeated at home bottom-ranked Lietkabelis-2 (2-22) 70-66 on Friday. However just four-point win is not that big difference and the fans of host team counted on more convincing victory. The hosts trailed by 7 points after first quarter, but they rallied back to get the 2-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 70-66. Center Matas Jucikas (205-94) fired a double-double by scoring 25 points and 10 rebounds for the winners. American forward RJ Sims (196, college: E.Mennonite) chipped in 12 points and 8 rebounds. Power forward Darius Marcinkevicius (201-91) produced 9 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists and forward Benas Bagdonavicius (202-91) added 18 points respectively for lost side. Lietkabelis-2's coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Palanga moved-up to fourth place, which they share with Perlas-MRU. Lietkabelis-2 lost third consecutive game. Newly promoted team stay dead last with 22 lost games. Palanga will meet league's second-placed Mazeikiai on the road in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Lietkabelis-2 will play against Rasai (#13) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
