Australian big men Brock Motum and Dan Trist stood out this week in the European national leagues, while Brad Newley played his 150th Spanish ACB game in a career milestone. Brock Motum was the focal point for BC Zalgiris Kaunas as they crushed Dzukija 101-62 in Lithuania. Motum played just 26 minutes yet delivered 25 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists in a fine display. The Australian forward was doing it all, including in the paint while also demonstrating his ability to stretch defenses in raining down 3/4 from beyond the arc. Zalgiris responded very well following the loss to Lietuvos Rytas last round, coming out in full form and building an imposing 30 point lead at the half. They collected 20 more assists than the visitors and committed just 7 turnovers. The game was a foregone conclusion after only a matter of minutes, highlighting how desperate Zalgiris were to send a message to their opponents and the rest of the league.
