Neptunas big man Grant named Player of the Week

Neptunas center Jerai Grant received the Betsafe LKL Player of the Week honors after pacing the Klaipeda club to a pair of victories against Dzukija and Skycop Prienai.

The 29-year-old big man put up averages of 13.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.5 blocks, as Neptunas improved to 4-1 in the league standings. His best game came against Dzukija, when he scored 17 points and grabbed 6 rebounds en route to an efficiency ranking of 28.

Although a monster game against Zalgiris wasn't enough for D.J Seeley to give Rytas a win in the Lithuanian classic, it did land him on the Team of the Week.

Dovis Bickauskis of Juventus, Ignas Vaitkus of Siauliai and Lietkabelis power forward Donatas Tarolis rounded out the selection.
