During the off-season, Šarūnas Jasikevičius left Žalgiris after four and a half seasons as a head coach of the team, signing for FC Barcelona.

An 18-year-old Marek Blaževič was bought out from Žalgiris local rivals Rytas, signing for three years, although their Estonian prospect Kerr Kriisa decided to pursue his career in the USA college basketball.

Lithuanian trio, Laurynas Birutis, Arnas Velička, and Gytis Masiulis left the club after playing mainly out on loan, with their contracts not being renewed.

New arrivals included big man duo Augustine Rubit and Joffrey Lauvergne, both signed for one-year contract, guard Steve Vasturia signed for a two-year contract (with a possible extension for another year), and swingman Patricio Garino.

Žalgiris retained the King Mindaugas Cup title, defeating Lietkabelis 76:69 after a strong 4th quarter performance.
