Third defeat of league's leader Zalgiris (22-3) against fifth ranked Neptunas (16-12) 114-112 was the most important game of the last round.

They looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists. 38 personal fouls committed by Zalgiris helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Worth to mention a great performance of the former international guard Zygimantas Janavicius (192-1989, agency: Interperformances) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 22 points, 6 rebounds and 11 assists. The former international guard Mindaugas Girdziunas (188-1989) contributed with 28 points and 5 assists (made all of his twelve free throws !!!) for the winners. American guard Keenan Evans (191-1996, college: Texas Tech) replied with 26 points and 6 assists and his fellow American import guard Edmond Sumner (198-1995, college: Xavier) added 21 points (made all of his eight free throws) in the effort for Zalgiris. Five Neptunas and four Zalgiris players scored in double figures. Both coaches used bench players in such tough game. Neptunas have an impressive eight-game winning streak. They moved-up to fourth place. Defending champion Zalgiris dropped to the second position with three games lost. They were replaced at the leadership position by Rytas. Zalgiris will play next round against Jonava trying to make it back to the top of the standings. Neptunas will try to continue on its current victory against tenth ranked Nevezis in Kedainiai.
