LKL top team - Zalgiris (15-2) added another victory to their record on Saturday. This time they beat sixth ranked Juventus (6-11) in Utena 78-74. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Juventus. The guests trailed by 2 points after first quarter, but they rallied back to get the 3-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 78-74. 25 personal fouls committed by Juventus helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Canadian-Slovenian point guard Kevin Pangos (188-93, college: Gonzaga) scored 15 points and 6 assists to lead the charge for the winners and American Aaron White (206-92, college: Iowa) chipped in 10 points and 7 rebounds during the contest. Zalgiris' coach Sarunas Jasikevicius used an eleven-player rotation in such tough game. American center LaRon Dendy (205-88, college: Middle Tenn.St., agency: David Lee Services) responded with 13 points and 4 assists and his fellow American import point guard Anthony Ireland (175-91, college: Loyola Mary) scored 13 points.
