Palanga dominated down low during the game scoring 56 of its points in the paint compared to Rytas 2's 32. Palanga forced 19 Rytas 2 turnovers.

Four Palanga players scored in double figures. Palanga's coach Povilas Sakinis allowed to play the deep bench players saving starting five for next games. Guard Arnas Adomavicius (191-2000, college: UNCG) responded with 24 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists and Adas Simonis (192-2001) scored 19 points. Palanga moved-up to tenth place. Loser Rytas 2 dropped to the eleventh position with 19 games lost. They share it with Kretinga and Vilkaviskis.
