Regular Season Round 20: Rytas - Zalgiris 76-83

Date: March 9, 2025
The game between Top Four teams took place in Vilnius. Second-ranked host Rytas (16-4) lost to first ranked Zalgiris (18-2) 83-76. It ended at the same time the eight-game winning streak of Rytas. The winners were led by the former international center Laurynas Birutis (213-1997) who had that evening a double-double by scoring 16 points and 10 rebounds (on 7-of-8 shooting from the field) and the former international swingman Ignas Brazdeikis (201-1999, college: Michigan) supported him with 11 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists. Four Zalgiris players scored in double figures. Even 8 points and 10 rebounds by international Gytis Radzevicius (197-1995) did not help to save the game for Rytas. American point guard Parker Jackson-Cartwright (180-1995, college: Arizona) added 13 points for the hosts. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Zalgiris have an impressive 14-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 18-2 record. Defending champion Rytas keeps the second place with four games lost. Zalgiris will play against Jonava (#5) at home in the next round. Rytas will play against Lietkabelis in Panevezys and hopes to get back on the winning track.
