    I like the Rebounds... thats a good sign. We all know he can score, I just want to see him improve in the paint anyways.

    Yeah wanna see him dominate in rebounds and blocks. Shooting was a bit rusty as it was his 1st game. Good Start.

    Yeah, he actually got a couple of blocks in there too. That was a good start.

    Second game for D-Mo. His team won 75:68 against a rather mediocre team.

    Motiejunas had 13 points & 9 rebounds. Can't find a boxscore though. Accoring the the recap he hit a three. Maybe OHMSS or some Polish/Lithuanian guys can help us out as far as boxscores go.

    It's a preseason game against a club from Kazakhstan. I don't know if there would be a box score anywhere for a game like that.

    Nearly a double double without even trying. Beast.

    A team from Kazakistan? He should be dominating like Shaq against competition like that.

    I wonder how many minutes he played? He better of got those 13 points and 9 rebounds in under 20 mins.

    3-15 from the field

    1-7 from the 3 point line

    and Draftexpress.com tweeted that he played quite bad. Also, playing in a competition that is 2 levels below the Euroleague level.

    Yes. It was against a team from FIBA Asia zone called Basketball Club Astana. They play in the first division of the club basketball league in Kazakhstan.

    Here you can see their roster:

    Valanciunas won't play Euroleague this year. His team lost at home against Galatasaray and didn't qualified for the Euroleague.

    I am glad that he has an NBA buyout. We are going to need him whenever the season starts.

    They are not the champions of Ukraine, they lost in game 7 in finals series last year and already failed the Euroleague qualify round

    Watched him play a little. Nothing special actually. I want to watch him play against CSKA vs Khryapa or Kirilenko
