Date: April 17, 2023
An exciting game between Top Four teams was played in Kaunas. First ranked Zalgiris faced second-best Rytas. Host Zalgiris (23-4) defeated guests from Vilnius (21-6) 81-75. It ended at the same time the six-game winning streak of Rytas. 27 personal fouls committed by Rytas helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. The best player for the winners was Latvian Rolands Smits (207-1995) who scored 12 points and 7 rebounds. The former international Edgaras Ulanovas (199-1992) chipped in 6 points and 8 rebounds. Zalgiris' coach Kazys Maksvytis used an eleven-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. At the other side the best for losing team was international Gytis Radzevicius (197-1995) who recorded 17 points and 8 rebounds (on 6-of-7 shooting from the field) and American forward Justin Gorham (201-1998, college: Houston) added 12 points and 8 rebounds respectively. Zalgiris have an impressive series of five victories in a row. They maintain first place with 23-4 record. Defending champion Rytas keeps the second position with six games lost. Zalgiris are looking forward to face P.Zvaigzdes (#10) in Pasvalys in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Rytas will play at home against Siauliai (#9) and is hoping to prove to their supporters that the loss was just an accident.
