Wolves victorious in Vilnius derby, Neptūnas brings down Žalgiris

In an electrifying culmination of the first round-robin in the Betsafe-LKL, basketball enthusiasts were treated to a week of edge-of-the-seat action, intense competition, and unexpected twists. This is how the action unfolded last week, presented by Scorestars.

On Saturday the first derby of Vilnius took place in Avia Solutions Group arena where Rytas battled it out with Wolves. Despite missing Rasheed Sulaimon and Jeffery Taylor, Wolves managed to take a 84-74 win that lets them settle alone in the first place of the standings.

Neptūnas Klaipėda provided a sensation in Kaunas. The seaside team, once again led by Ąžuolas Tubelis, took a 88-76 victory against Žalgiris Kaunas. Neptūnas made 10 three pointers in the first half and 17 in the whole game.

In Kėdainiai, local Nevėžis-Optibet fought with Pieno žvaigždės Pasvalys. The home team managed to take the game to overtime and had 1-point lead in the last seconds but Jordan Watson became man of the hour as his mid-range jumper gave Pieno žvaigždės a dramatic victory 91-90.
