2023-24
3 Mins read
It's a key battle between direct rivals on the fringes of the playoffs places, and Lietkabelis needs a 12-point winning margin to claim the head-to-head advantage after Buducnost enjoyed a 76-65 opening night win. Mckinley Wright orchestrated that victory with 13 points and 5 assists, and this week Buducnost will have to find a way of stopping Gediminas Orelik, who averages 18.6 points after scoring in double digits every game so far this season.
