Search for players continues, they are interested in (and probably in other players too, especially US players):
E.J. Rowland (PG, 188cm, 1978, Barons/LMT)
Mareks Jurevičus (SG/SF, 198cm, 1985, Liepājas Lauvas)
Gatis Jahovičs (SF/PF, 202cm, 1984, WTK Anwil, Polija)
Klāvs Ansons (PF, 202cm, 1983, Liepājas Lauvas)
Steve Rich (C, 208cm, 1972, Barons/LMT)
Jurevicus and Ansons were leaders of Liepājas Lauvas- team that finished 4th in Latvian Basketball League despite small budget and not playing in BBL, they also might like to keep E.J. Rowland who played very good in play-off ''super'' semifinal vs ASK Riga and center Steve Rich who was disqualified for taking coke.
Also the head coach has changed and Kālis Muižnieks- Latvian NT head coach left Ventspils and has joined Barons/LMT.
New player Raimonds Vaikulis said in the interview that main goals for team is to win LBL title and 3rd place in BBL that's again everybody's for taking.
