After defeating Rigas Zeli (97-85 on 29/8) at Zalgirio Arena, Zalgiris also defeated (82-77) the also Lithuanian Juventus at their home in Kaunas and made it 2/2 in the preseason.
Jonas Valanciunas led again with 14 points -all in the first half- and 9 rebounds, while Dustin Sliva was also in double figures (10pts). Three familiar to the Greek audience, Marius Grigonis (9pts), Saben Lee (8pts) & Nigel Williams-Goss (6pts, 6asts), follow in contribution.
They weren’t the only acquaintances, since Cam Reynolds (10pts, 5r) plays for Juventus, with a stint at Prometheus (2023-24) & Maroussi (2024-26).
Zalgiris is one of the teams that has strengthened the most this summer, especially after the departure of Moses Wright (Olimpia Milano) and Sylvain Francisco (Panathinaikos).
