Regular Season Round 31: Siauliai - Lietkabelis 81-101
Date: April 18, 2019
Very expected game when 9th ranked Siauliai (6-25) was crushed at home by fourth ranked Lietkabelis (20-11) 101-81 on Thursday. The game was mostly controlled by Lietkabelis. Siauliai managed to win fourth quarter 14-12. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Lietkabelis dominated down low during the game scoring 60 of its points in the paint compared to Siauliai's 40 and made 17-of-20 free shots (85.0 percent) during the game. Lietkabelis looked well-organized offensively handing out 25 assists. Nigerian guard Ike Iroegbu (188-95, college: WSU) fired 20 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists for the winners. Paulius Valinskas (190-95) chipped in 22 points and 5 assists. Five Lietkabelis players scored in double figures. American guard Seth Allen (185-94, college: Virginia Tech, agency: Slash Sports) produced 11 points and 8 assists and center Benas Griciunas (213-94, college: EWU) added 9 points and 7 rebounds respectively for lost side. Siauliai's coach Antanas Sireika rotated ten players seeing no chance for a win. Lietkabelis have a solid series of four victories in a row. They maintain fourth place with 20-11 record. Loser Siauliai keeps the ninth position with 25 games lost. Lietkabelis will meet at home league's second-placed Neptunas in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Siauliai will play against Prienu Skycop (#7) in Prienai and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
