Vytautas defeat Dzukija for third straight win

The Virginijus Seskus-coached Vytautas finally rose from the bottom of the Betsafe LKL standings after inscribing their third consecutive victory in the domestic championship on Monday.

The Prienai-Birstonas club handed Dzukija a 90-60 blowout on the road in Alytus for their largest win of the campaign, as Justas Sinica and Egidijus Dimsa combined for 33 of the team's points.

Sinica led the scoring with 17 points, while Dimsa added 16 points and 7 rebounds. Edvinas Seskus chipped in with 14 points for Vytautas, who held the control of the game in their hands right from the tip-off.

The hosts were not helped by the fact they had all 12 players on the scoreboard, as the duo of Mindaugas Susinskas and Paulius Danisevicius were the only ones in double figures with 11 and 10 points, respectively.

After improving to a 3-9 mark, Vytautas climbed all the way to seventh in the Betsafe LKL table, while Dzukija are locked for fifth place with Pieno Zvaigzdes at 5-8.
