• Rihards Lomažs spent 20 minutes and 48 seconds on the court, with 15 points (2p. 3/4, 3p. 3/4) he was the second most productive in the team and had two rebounds, two fouls, four points and three provoked points.
• Lomaž went on the court at the end of the first and third quarters and spent almost the entire second and fourth quarters. However, the Latvian duel in Kaunas was canceled because Šmits, the most expensive player of “Žalgir”, injured his ankle last week.
• Lomaž repeated his Euroleague scoring record, scoring 15 points also in October 2019, when he visited Kaunas with the French ASVEL.
• Lomaža’s brightest game so far for “Virtus” was on February 5 in Treviso, scoring 10 points in 15 minutes, but he had participated in only five games in the Euroleague, scoring only six points in total and not playing more than nine minutes in any match.
• “Virtus” was in the lead for most of the first half, reaching only +6, but “Žalgiris” dominated in the second half, achieving a double-digit lead for the first time in the fourth quarter (76:66).
• During the breakthrough of “Žalgir” in the middle of the fourth quarter, Luka Banki received two technical marks in a row in 20 seconds.
• The most productive player on the court was Tornike Shengelija (19p, 5rp, 3ab), but Edmond Sumner scored 16 points for the hosts, while Kevarrius Hayes stood out with 13 points, six rebounds, two assists and two steals.
• “Žalgiris” will also host “Baskonia” on Thursday, while “Virtus” will visit Belgrade “Crvena zvezda” on Friday.
