bump

[finþaų]

Sorry for going mildly off-topic, but I would like to say that these Lithuanians look very foreign and "East European" to my Scandinavian eyes.

[sevruk]

the last two look Corded / North Pontids

[Mans not hot]

I wonder how common is Linas Kleiza's look among Lithuanians because he look like he could be Polish. The rest look more distinctly Lithuanian.

[Atlantic Islander]

The last one is cute.

[sammymcgoff]

The last one is cute.

So is the second one

Aren't they closer to East Europeans racially than to Scandinavians?

[Mans not hot]

Aren't they closer to East Europeans racially than to Scandinavians?
Yes, obviously.

[Lemon Kush]

Yes, obviously.

Well he said it like they were atypical for Lithuanians or something. Anyway I think Darius Songaila can pass as Scandinavian http://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/i/headshots/nba/players/full/1784.png&w=350&h=254

the rest look more distinctly eastern imo.

Yes, he really does not look east euro, the rest is very good looking east euro

1. Darius Songaila: Nordid/CM.
2. Linas Kleiza: Dinarid with a Baltid influence.
3. Simas Jasaitis: North-Pontid
4. Jonas Valančiūnas: North-Pontid.

[Hevo]

Person one could easily pass in the Netherlands. The rest looks more East-european.

Probably because he has more Northwest European Cro-Magnid admixture aside from his standard Nordid than the other guys do.
