Siauliai registered wins over Rudupis and KK Baltai to improve to 16-3, while Triumph is just one win back after wins over University of Tartu and Juventus. The two are slated to lock horns in a top-of-the-table in their final game. Siauliai used a 17-0 third quarter run to break open a close game en route to an 80-71 win against Rudupis. Arvydas Siksnius led the way with 20 points and Valdas Vasylius added 18 for the winners. Siauliai followed that with a 76-83 win at Baltai. The visitors trailed by 4 early in the fourth quarter and the score was knotted at 69-69 midway through the final period, but Edvinas Ruzgas scored half the points in a decisive 0-8 run and Siauliai never looked back. Ruzgas finished with 17 points and Julius Jucikas posted 16 points and 9 rebounds for the victors. Triumph downed Tartu 65-57 as Victor Zvarykin scored 16 and then crushed Juventus 95-69 thanks to Lazar Trifunovic, who led six Triumph scorers in double figures with 19 points and 9 rebounds.
