Regular Season Round 5: Zalgiris - Gargzdu 86-74

Date: October 16, 2022
Very expected game in Kaunas where bottom-ranked Gargzdu (0-5) was defeated by leader Zalgiris (5-0) 86-74 on Sunday. Zalgiris looked well-organized offensively handing out 25 assists. The best player for the winners was the former international center Laurynas Birutis (213-1997) who scored 15 points and 5 rebounds. International guard Tomas Dimsa (195-1994) chipped in 10 points and 5 rebounds. American point guard Josh Newkirk (185-1994, college: Indiana) produced 24 points and 6 assists and the other American import forward Sam Thompson (200-1992, college: Ohio St.) added 12 points and 11 rebounds respectively for the guests. Four Gargzdu players scored in double figures. Both coaches tested many bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. The victory was the fifth consecutive win for Zalgiris. They keep a position of league leader, which they share with Jonava. Gargzdu lost their fifth game in a row. Newly promoted team still closes the standings with five games lost. They share the position with Prienai CBet. Zalgiris will meet at home Nevezis (#7) in the next round which should be theoretically an easy game. Gargzdu will play against Neptunas (#10) in Klaipeda and hopes to get finally their first victory.
