In a recent match, T. Masiulis' team secured a resounding 94-65 victory against Šiauliai at home. Despite the clear scoreline, Masiulis commented that the result did not reflect the actual battle on the court, highlighting that Šiauliai fought hard and did not make it easy for his team. He praised the performance, noting that they were able to secure the win while managing the workload of several players through strategic decision-making.

An exciting aspect of this match was the debut of Majus Bulanovas, a member of the Žalgiris youth system. He made his entrance towards the end of the second quarter and scored his first points in the Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL) by the end of the game. Masiulis expressed happiness for every player who progresses from the junior teams and contributes to the main squad, recognizing the potential that Bulanovas brings to the team and the importance of providing opportunities for youth development.

Masiulis also mentioned that they are keeping an eye on other promising players such as Jokūbas Rudaitis who are performing well in the reserves. He stressed the challenge of allocating playing time since there are already many players in similar positions, but they are committed to giving opportunities to deserving youth as they monitor their performance closely. The continued integration of young players is a critical step for the team's future success and depth in competition.
