The players of Crvena Zvezda were booed in Kaunas after they chose not to hold the Ukrainian flag with the message 'stop the war'.

Some of them, though, used their social media after the game to clear the air about what happened before the game.

Aaron White, who played for Zalgiris Kaunas for two seasons, stated on his Twitter profile: 'As a team, we were told not to touch the flag. I would like to make it clear that I don't support the war and I want peace in our world".

Zalgiris Kaunas won the game against Crvena Zvezda after overtime which was the final Euroleague game of Paulius Jankunas.
