Zalgiris not troubled by league newcomer Gargzdai 3
With 2022 coming into its closing days, Zalgiris secured yet another victory in the Betsafe-LKL, defeating league newcomer Gargzdai, 89-71.
This pushes Zalgiris’ record to 13-1, while Gargzdai mirror it with a 1-13 in the standings.
The game was fairly close in the opening stages, as withing the first two quarters it was a back-and-forth affair, Gargzdai leading by five halfway through the second quarter.
Nevertheless, a strong finish to the first half, and an even stronger start to the second one allowed the green-and-whites to jump ahead by 20 by the time the fourth quarter came.
The final quarter was merely a formality, as Zalgiris safely cruised to the finish line.
Laurynas Birutis was the team’s top scorer with 15 points, as Karolis Lukosiunas added 14. Kevarrius Hayes had 12, Arnas Butkevicius dropped 8, while Ignas Brazdeikis, Dovydas Giedraitis and Edgaras Ulanovas finished up with 7 apiece.
