Zalgiris Kaunas guard Lukas Lekavicius did not avoid surgery. The Zalgiris player, who felt groin pain back in mid-February and tried conservative methods of treatment, finally had to undergo surgical intervention.

Prof. Mindaugas Kiudelis successfully performed sports hernia repair surgery in Kaunas Clinics.

Lekavicius will miss a few more weeks without basketball. His condition will be reassessed as he heals.

In this Betsafe-LKL season, the guard scored 7.2 points and made 2.2 assists in almost 15 minutes on the court.

Lekavicius managed to play 14 games in the EuroLeague season, scoring 2.1 points per game.
