About Arvydas Macijauskas

Arvydas "Kalashnikov" Macijauskas (born January 19, 1980) is a retired Lithuanian professional basketball player. Standing at 1.93 m (6 ft 4 in), he played at the shooting guard position. He was one of the greatest Lithuanian players of the 2000s, winning many individual awards, club and national team trophies.

Starting his professional career in Neptūnas, he later played for some top Euroleague teams, such as Lietuvos Rytas, Tau Ceramica and Olympiacos, and even played with New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets for one season in the NBA. He also represented the Lithuanian national basketball team.

He announced a retirement from the professional basketball back in 2010, two years after his last club, Olympiacos, released him following a prolonged judicial litigation.
