Re: M. Andriuskevicius Press Conference (3:00 P.M.)
Martynas has decent English, which prompted Ferry to joke that his English was much better than Zydrunas’ when he first joined the team. Early impressions I got was Martynas Andriuskevicius was nervous but a good sport about the whole deal. Ferry said starting today the team will try to address Andriuskevicius’ strength issue. Martynas will be lifting and eating (Ferry took him out to a steakhouse the other day). A question about Ilgauskas came up and Ferry said he thinks Ilgauskas will be back but that he has an important decision to make and wants him to have space to do whatever he feels is best. One reporter asked if Martynas Andriuskevicius will play in the summer league next week and Martynas said yes. That joins him with Luke Jackson, Kelenna Azubuike (?) and John Gilchrist on the summer squad. Ferry fielded some general questions about the team and that was that.

I think Martynas wants to be in the US in some shape or form. Some say he doesn't want to go back to Europe and if that's the case, he would rather be in the NBDL (where he would probably see more playing time) than go back overseas.

I want him in the NBDL, get him plenty of playing time and on an NBA caliber weight training program.
Man our summer league squad is gonna be interesting, does anyone know if these games are televised? (i'm hoping locally cause I don't have NBA TV)

He still looks he's growing.
Still not expecting much for him but a good risk: some guys just mature late

He is a great risk. He will only see a few minutes a game if he goes back overseas, so look for him to goto the NBDL.
