Zalgiris officially announced adding Deividas Sirvydis to its ranks, signing a “2+1” deal.
The 24-year-old guard with NBA experience wore the shirt of 7bet-Lietkabelis last season, competed with the team in the EuroCup, and won a bronze medal in the Lithuanian championship.
“I worked hard throughout my career to be in the EuroLeague. A lot of fun. I can’t say that I ever expected to end up here. Somewhere, maybe deep down, there was such a thought, but the feeling is really amazing. I can’t wait to help the team,” Sirvydis said.
He had a great season in the EuroCup, averaging 18.9 points on 42.3% three-point shooting.
Sirvydis was also selected in the best five of the Betsafe-LKL championship after averaging 15.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, and making 2.2 assists.
Lithuanian guard started his career in Vilnius in 2019. He was drafted with the 37th pick in the NBA draft and moved from Hapoel Jerusalem to the Detroit Pistons, where he played 23 games in the NBA.
