Sure he could contribute more to Olympic appeared o Ignas Brazdeikis. The 25-year-old gave statements to “Zalgiris TV” talking about his return to the Lithuanian team and, among other things, referred to the course of the “red and whites”.
“I feel truly blessed and grateful for the opportunity to come back here. I liked being in Kaunas in the first season. I have many good memories with my teammates, coaches and fans. I can’t wait for this season to start and I’m ready to compete. I think my teammates feel the same way. We are all looking forward to the start of the season.
The possibility of returning was always in my mind, even when I left Kaunas. As the season progressed with Olympiakos, we saw the course I had. The thought of returning began to take on more and more flesh and bones. I’m glad it took place, there was interest from both sides“, he said initially and continued about the Piraeus:
“Without a doubt, I felt like I could influence the course of the race and contribute more to the wins. That’s what I thought when I was there, but unfortunately it didn’t happen in my case.
I’m very hungry for basketball, I worked a lot in the off season, analyzed a lot of things. This was the first summer in a long time that I could focus solely on improving, after several seasons spent playing for the national team. I was able to analyze my game this summer and develop as a player. I feel great, that I have learned the importance of taking care of my body during my years as a professional. This summer I took it very seriously. I am well prepared physically and mentally. I’m really happy about it
We have a lot of talent on this team. Multiple players can score. I think we are a pretty physical team. You never know how things are going to go until the season starts. But it’s a lot of fun to be a part of this team. I think we will be very competitive. We will be able to win games. We just have to put the puzzle pieces together and find the right chemistry. Everything else will be great».
