Regular Season Round 17: Lietkabelis - Jonava 88-69

Date: January 2, 2022
Rather expected game when 6th ranked Jonava (7-7) was smashed by third ranked Lietkabelis (10-5) in Panevezys 88-69. Lietkabelis outrebounded Jonava 34-21 including a 27-14 advantage in defensive rebounds. They shot the lights out from three nailing 15 long-distance shots on high 53.6 percentage. Lietkabelis players were unselfish on offense dishing 26 assists comparing to just 11 passes made by Jonava's players. Guard Kristupas Zemaitis (192-96) stepped up and scored 18 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists (perfect from the field making all six shots) for the winners and Latvian center Kaspars Berzins (213-85) chipped in 18 points (on 6-of-7 shooting from the field). Four Lietkabelis players scored in double figures. Lietkabelis' coach Nenad Canak allowed to play the deep bench players saving starting five for next games. Guard Evaldas Saulys (191-93) responded with 18 points (was perfect 9-for-9 from the free throw line !!!) and forward Laimonas Kisielius (203-85, college: William & Mary) scored 11 points. The victory was the third consecutive win for Lietkabelis. They maintain third place with 10-5 record having four points less than leader Zalgiris. Newly promoted Jonava keeps the sixth position with seven games lost. Lietkabelis will play against Juventus (#5) in Utena in the next round. Jonava will play at home against the league's second-placed Rytas and hopes to get back on the winning track.
