While both parties express a desire to continue their partnership, they have different economic positions, per the same report. Consequently, Giedraitis is actively exploring alternative offers from other teams.

The 30-year-old is currently on an expiring deal with Baskonia. He joined the Spanish team in 2020 following a two-year period with ALBA Berlin and previous experiences with various Lithuanian clubs.

The Lithuanian NT member, who confirmed that he will miss the upcoming FIBA World Cup 2023 due to personal reasons, averaged 10.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 13.6 PIR over 34 EuroLeague games this past season.

His ACB averages marked 10.8 points, 3.8 boards, and 12.3 PIR in 33 matches.

Giedraitis made the All-ACB Second Team in 2021.
