Neptunas Klaipeda 2014 roster, stats and best five

9 draftable players from Neptunas Klaipeda's 2014 season — full stat lines, a suggested best five, and how this board plays in Road to Glory.

When the draw lands on Neptunas Klaipeda in 2014, this is the board: 9 draftable basketball players, led by Deividas Gailius at PIR 13.9. You draft exactly one of them for the slot you spun, and they must be placed at a position they actually played — 2 of the 9 can play the point and 3 can play the big spots.

7 of these players count as underdogs (peak PIR under 10), so this club-season is also drawable in Make the Playoffs.

The best five to draft from this roster

Filling the point, two wings and two big spots by PIR while respecting placement rules gives this five. Together they are strongest in perimeter defence and thinnest in rim defence — if you are only drafting one player from this board, the biggest lift usually comes from whoever covers the category your existing four are missing.

  • Mustafa Shakur — PG · 9.6 PPG, 2.3 RPG, 3.8 APG · PIR 8.7
  • Deividas Gailius — SG/SF · 14.7 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 2.5 APG · PIR 13.9
  • Donatas Zavackas — PF · 12.0 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 1.8 APG · PIR 13.7
  • Simas Galdikas — PF/C · 6.0 PPG, 4.7 RPG, 0.9 APG · PIR 7.8
  • Egidijus Dimsa — PF · 4.4 PPG, 2.3 RPG, 0.3 APG · PIR 2.5

How this board plays

In Classic every stat line above is visible during the draft. In Hidden mode you get only the names and positions, so knowing that Deividas Gailius led this team is the edge. With 7 underdogs, it is also a workable board for Make the Playoffs.
