Lithuanian nationwide group GM Linas Kleiza met with all three Lithuanian NBA gamers: captain Jonas Valanciunas, Domantas Sabonis and Matas Buzelis. Throughout conversations, Kleiza questioned if he had made a mistake by not going to america earlier to satisfy the nation’s stars. “Maybe I should have told Jonas (Valanciunas) and Domantas (Sabonis) earlier how important they were. It seemed to me that it was obvious that this team was theirs. Maybe that was my mistake,” Kleiza admitted on the show ‘Kleiza vs Tiskevicius.’ “At the start of the season, the gamers don’t need to discuss in regards to the nationwide group, so the journey was left for later, it’s a disgrace that it was towards such a background. I believe that as a lot as potential, constructive steps had been taken.” -via BasketNews / April 8, 2025
