Rokas Giedraitis spoke for the first time after renewing his contract with Crvena Zvezda for two years with “Meridian Sport“.
The Lithuanian firstly spoke about the bizarre ending of Game 2 of the Serbian Super League finals. Crvena Zvezda won by an official result of 20:0. By his own admission he did not have an experience like this.
“For me, this is a new experience. I’ve never gone through anything like this in my life. It was strange, but it is what it is… I can’t talk much about it because I’ve never encountered such things in my career. I’m happy to be here. I want to thank the team for believing in me. I hope we have two good years ahead of us”, said Rokas Giedraitis at the beginning.
Then he talked about his contract renewal. He emphasized that it all happened quickly:
“It happened really fast. They informed me on Tuesday, and everything was finalized within one day. My agent was probably negotiating for a longer period, but I found out on Tuesday, and we quickly reached an agreement. I may not show emotions on my face, but I am really happy.”
Former Baskonia player has averaged little over 10 points, 3,8 rebounds, while shooting 34% for three in the EuroLeague. In the ABA League he scored 9,3 points per game and grabbed 2,9 rebounds per game.
