On Monday, the team coached by him beat Šiauliai club 84:60 on Nemunas Island.
“Happy holidays everyone, have a good Easter match. We have allocated the minutes, we are preparing for an important week”, smiled the Kaunas club strategist.
In this confrontation, he divided the time of his students evenly. Only Arnas Butkevičius became an exception.
“We decided to spare his legs,” said the worker about the striker’s rest.
The pleasant surprise of “Žalgiris” in the winning match was Lukas Lekavičius, who improved his rebound record – 8.
“You have to think, we haven’t used such an option before, really good numbers,” K. Maksvytis joked when asked if it was worth trying L. Lekavičius in the midfielder position.
“Žalgiris” captain Edgaras Ulanovs also played a solid game on Monday, who made all three three-pointers.
“He pulled us for most of the season, then he had a hole, it was hard to blame him.” One of the goals of this match was for the players to gain confidence, to return to seriousness, I hope that Edgar will continue this,” said the coach of the Kaunas club about the shining student.
Already on Friday, the strategist will be waiting for the crucial Euroleague duel in Munich against the basketball players of “Bayern”.
“There were not too many thoughts (about the match in Munich – ed.). The most important thing was not to get injured, there is still a lot of time – we will have time to both rest and work”, stressed K. Maksvytis.
At that time, the coach of Šiauliai club Antanas Sireika wished him health on the occasion of Easter.
“Health, be healthy and everything will be fine,” said A. Sireika about the Easter wish for the worker.
