Regular Season Round 8: Rytas - Zalgiris 67-81

Date: November 5, 2023
The most crucial game of the last round was the first loss of Rytas (7-1) in Vilnius on Sunday night. Hosts were defeated by Zalgiris (8-0) 81-67. It ended at the same time the seven-game winning streak of Rytas. It was a key game for the top position in the league. Worth to mention a great performance of the former international Edgaras Ulanovas (199-1992) who helped to win the game recording 12 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists and American guard Keenan Evans (191-1996, college: Texas Tech) who added 15 points during the contest. American guard RJ Cole (182-1999, college: UConn) responded with 13 points and 4 assists and his fellow American import forward Justin Gorham (201-1998, college: Houston) scored 11 points and 6 rebounds. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Zalgiris have an impressive eight-game winning streak. Defending champion keeps a position of league leader. Rytas at the other side dropped to the second place with one game lost. They share the position with Wolves. Zalgiris are looking forward to face Wolves (#3) in Vilnius in the next round, which may be the game of the day. Rytas will play at home against Neptunas and is hoping to win this game.
