Zalgiris<\/a> opened the Lithuanian Basketball League<\/a> playoffs with a dominant 102\u201382 win over Jonava in Game 1 of the quarterfinal series.<\/p>\n

Jonava had a solid start and took an early 11\u20138 lead, but Zalgiris quickly found its rhythm and closed the opening quarter ahead 22\u201317 after a three-pointer by Deividas Sirvydis.<\/p>\n

The visitors managed to tie the game at 29\u201329 in the second quarter, before the hosts responded with a massive 24\u20136 run to take full control and head into halftime with a 53\u201335 advantage.<\/p>\n

Moses Wright led the way for Zalgiris with 18 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 blocks, while shooting efficiently from the field and the free-throw line. He also finished with the best plus-minus on the team at +31 in only 18 minutes on the floor.<\/p>\n

Sylvain Francisco sparked the offense during the key second-quarter stretch, while Edgaras Ulanovas and Azuolas Tubelis provided valuable support on both ends of the floor.<\/p>\n

Zalgiris pushed the lead to 77\u201352 entering the fourth quarter and never looked back, despite a short Jonava run early in the final period. The defending champions now take a 1\u20130 lead in the best-of-three quarterfinal series.<\/p>\n
