The 2021–22 BC Žalgiris season is the 78th season in the existence of the club. The club has been playing in the Betsafe-LKL, King Mindaugas Cup and the EuroLeague. Coach Martin Schiller, who served as the team's head coach the previous season, was shortly after the season began replaced by Jure Zdovc in October 2021. He was then replaced by Kazys Maksvytis in early April after losing twice in a row in LKL and finishing last in Euroleague.
In January 2021, The Lithuanian champions have reached a contract extension agreement with big man Joffrey Lauvergne, who has signed a 1+1 deal until the end of the 2022–23 season.[1]
Right after the Betsafe-LKL Finals series was over, Žalgiris immediately started setting the stones for next season, extending a contract with point guard Lukas Lekavičius on a 1+1 deal.[2]
