#TimeOutZalgiris strolls in Milan 5
Thursday night saw Zalgiris match up against AX Armani in the Euroleague bout in Milan. Dalia Belickaite was once again roaming the backstages of the arena with the #TimeOutZalgiris team, talking to local and visiting fans.
Zalgiris fans travelled far and wide from all over Europe to see their beloved team play. A small army of fans made their way from Northern Ireland, Ireland, Luxembourg and Belgium among other places. You could even meet Paulius Jankunas’ former lecturer from his time in VDU university.
“Zalgiris unites us. And besides that, one of my former students plays for them. Best wishes to Paulius from VDU! I’m really proud to have had such a student.”
While Italian basketball fans didn’t seem to be too knowledgeable about Zalgiris, they did point out the team’s strengths and several of their favorite players.
“I don’t know much about Zalgiris. I just know due to their basketball. One of my favorite players is Aaron White, I like the way he dunks. Maybe Brandon Davies. He’s bigger than all the other Milan players. He’s very physical.”
