We should mention about the upset which took place in Alytus, where 4th placed Lietkabelis (11-6) lost to ninth ranked Dzukija (5-9) in a road game 70-86 on Wednesday. The hosts trailed by 4 points after first quarter, but they stormed back to get the 9-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 86-70. Dzukija shot 66.0 percent from the field. Dzukija had a 25-12 advantage in offensive rebounds. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 24 assists. Lietkabelis was plagued by 24 personal fouls down the stretch. Center Matas Jucikas (205-94, agency: BIG) fired 22 points and 5 rebounds (on 8-of-9 shooting from the field) for the winners. The former international swingman Arturas Jomantas (200-85) chipped in 9 points and 6 assists. Four Dzukija players scored in double figures. Guard Margiris Normantas (194-96) produced 9 points and 6 assists and guard Marius Valinskas (187-99) added 10 points and 4 assists respectively for lost side. Both coaches used bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Dzukija maintains ninth place with 5-9 record. Loser Lietkabelis keeps the fourth position with six games lost. Dzukija will face higher ranked Neptunas (#6) in Klaipeda in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Lietkabelis will play at home against Siauliai and hope to win that game.
