Regular Season Round 5: Rytas - Mazeikiai 90-54

Date: October 14, 2023
The game had a very big importance for second-ranked Rytas as it allowed them to take a leadership position. Rytas smashed bottom-ranked Mazeikiai in Vilnius 90-54. Rytas shot 25 for 36 from the free-throw line, while Mazeikiai only scored six points from the stripe. They outrebounded Mazeikiai 49-31 including a 32-20 advantage in defensive rebounds. 30 personal fouls committed by Mazeikiai helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. The former international guard Margiris Normantas (194-1996) stepped up and scored 23 points for the winners and American forward Justin Gorham (201-1998, college: Houston) chipped in 9 points and 11 rebounds. Giedrius Staniulis (206-1991) responded with 6 points and 10 rebounds and American guard Caleb Huffman (193-2000, college: Nicholls St., agency: GoEmpire Group) scored 12 points. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Rytas (5-0) have an impressive series of five victories in a row. As mentioned above they are at the top of the standings, which they share with Zalgiris. Newly promoted Mazeikiai still closes the standings with five games lost. They share the position with Nevezis and P.Zvaigzdes. Mazeikiai will play next round against Neptunas trying to get back on the winning streak. Rytas will try to continue on its current victory against third ranked Lietkabelis in Panevezys.
