Scenario B. With EL players I would like to see such team:
Lekavicius, Kalnietis
Seibutis, Grigonis, Valinskas*
Ulanovas, Maciulis
Jankunas, D-Mo**, Ehodas
Gudaitis, Kavaliauskas
* I focused on Valainskas game recently and I dear to say one thing - he is already a better defender than Kalnietis, Juskevicius (let alone Gecas and Milas). He's not at the level of Lekavicius, Seibutis, Grigonis, but he may easily be the best 4th defensive guard at the moment. That said I want him in the roster since players like Juskevicius on those do or die games can't bring things on the table and the importance of the defensive presence massively increases. Besides, Valinskas is the future and players like Juskevicius, Milaknis are not...
** If D-Mo would come would be nice because he's getting into shape and might even be the best player, but if not I would invite Orelikas. Watching how Ehodas dominates I don't really see a point to go with Bendzius, but I'm afraid Adomaitis will proudly take him knowing that he didn't even include Ehodas to extended preliminary roster before Eurobasket.LTU NT will snatch Eurobasket 2029 title with this roster:

Juskevicius,Girdziunas
Seibutis,Grigonis,Gecevicius
Giedraitis,Gailius
Orelikas,Bendzius
Ksistof,Kairys
There is even chance see Kalnietis and Maciulis helping, because its seems they are not needed for their teams anymore and there is chance they will be allowed to help nt team.
Team will look similiar to that, and they should qualife without to much problems to WC.

Originally posted by Hepcat View PostSo any more preliminary guesses as to the composition of the roster for the game with Kosovo? When and where are the Lithuanian players scheduled to assemble for the first practice anyway?
We know nothing. No 24 man player pool - no speculation from anyone in the media, nothing. The first game is 3 weeks out.
What a mess.

There is a prieliminary list, but as always it doesn't make any real sense (it's just FIBA rule) - i don't know why people are waiting for this. It always has nothing to do with the final team it will be: there aren't any unaxpected names (even if they are they won't be in the final roster for sure), there are players that won't be able to play by 99% and the list still can be added.
