“We selected the roster so that some players who have played more, like Ąžuolas Tubelis or Dominykas Stenionis, who also helped the reserve team, would get rest. Meanwhile, candidates who spent less time on the court in Alytus will have the opportunity to get additional playing minutes. We continue preparing for the FIBA qualification matches, so it is important for us to include every player and continue refining tactical and other aspects,” said R. Kurtinaitis.
