According to Basketnews journalist Donatas Urbonas, Žalgiris is close to signing a new three-year contract with Tubelis, which would eliminate the possibility of him transferring to another EuroLeague team until 2028. As Urbonas reports, Tubelis will become the most valuable player in Žalgiris' history, both in terms of annual salary and total three-year contract. Currently, Nigel Williams-Goss holds the record for the highest contract in Kaunas, earning around 1.4 million euros per year. This season, Tubelis earned more than 400,000 euros. However, the player will have the opportunity to transfer to the NBA. In this EuroLeague season, Tubelis averaged 12.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 12.7 assists per game.
