It is more than just a team. Individually they are funny and talented guys. Once they are together, they are Zalgiris, who is the pride of every Lithuanian.
He arrived in Kaunas for his first-ever head coaching job and ended the season with an LKL championship, a 5th-place EuroLeague finish, runner-up in EuroLeague Coach of the Year voting, and LKL Coach of the Year honors.
This is a Tomas Masiulis appreciation post. π
Legendary Zalgiris and Lithuania menβs national basketball team coach Vladas Garastas has passed away at the age of 94.
On behalf of the entire organization, we extend our deepest condolences to the coachβs family, friends, and loved ones. ποΈ
