Regular Season Day 1: Rigas Z. - Ventspils 81-90

Date: October 4, 2025
But Rigas Z. was not able to use a home court advantage and was defeated by the opponent from Ventspils 90-81 on Saturday night. Strangely Rigas Z. outrebounded Ventspils 39-27 including 24 on the defensive glass. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. American guard Cameron Shelton (188-1999, college: LMU) nailed 27 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists for the winning side and Arturs Ausejs (192-1990) accounted for 14 points and 4 assists. Four Ventspils players scored in double figures. Forward Janis Berzins (201-1993) came up with 22 points and 7 rebounds and point guard Emils Krumins (185-2001) added 19 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists respectively for Rigas Z. in the defeat. Both coaches used bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Ventspils will meet at home Tartu in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Rigas Z. will play against Kalev/Cramo in Tallinn and hope to win that game.
