Date: December 7, 2023
Everything went according to plan when third ranked Palanga (15-5) beat at home 7th ranked Vilkaviskis (11-8) 85-81 on Thursday. However just four-point win is not that big difference and the fans of host team counted on more convincing victory. Palanga outrebounded Vilkaviskis 47-31 including 16 on the offensive glass.

Forward Julius Kazakauskas (196-1990) fired a double-double by scoring 22 points and 11 rebounds (on 10-of-12 shooting from the field) for the winners. Power forward Karolis Guscikas (206-1992, agency: BIG) chipped in a double-double by scoring 17 points and 13 rebounds. Point guard Mantvydas Zukauskas (192-1998) produced 25 points and Armandas Bancevicius (203-2006) added 19 points, 6 rebounds and 4 blocks respectively for lost side. Five Palanga and four Vilkaviskis players scored in double figures. The victory was the third consecutive win for Palanga. They maintain third place with 15-5 record having just three point less than leader Suduva-Mantinga. Loser Vilkaviskis dropped to the sixth position with eight games lost.
