Arturas Lazdauskas brings size, versatility, and veteran polish to Long Beach State
Arturas Lazdauskas is a 6-foot-7 forward from Kaunas, Lithuania whose Long Beach State career was built on efficient, low-mistake play and real defensive versatility. In the 2008-09 season, he played 25 of 30 games despite missing most of February with an injury, while shooting 52.3% from the field and adding 2.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists, and 1.0 steals per game. His value is the glue-guy stuff: active hands, willingness to defend, and enough skill to pass and finish without hijacking possessions. Good fit if a team wants toughness, length, and dependable minutes.
