It has been a rough season for Ulanovas, but he seems to have turned a corner with PIRs in double figures in seven straight games. The Zalgiris small forward is a mismatch who can wreak havoc on defenses due to his phenomenal post-up skills from the small forward position. For the season, he has averaged 6.8 points and 4.3 rebounds.

Sant-Roos will be among the players Panathinaikos calls on to contain Ulanovas and the Cuban guard can do so either by denying the ball or playing straight-up tough defense against him. At 2.01 meters, Sant-Roos has the length and experience to make the difference against Ulanovas, while also making an impact on offense. He has averaged 7.2 points per game this season.
