Professional career
[edit]Born in Mažeikiai, Lithuania, he made his debut with Mažeikiai Nafta during the 2001-02 season. He played high-school basketball at Laurinburg Normal HS. In 2004, he signed with Šiauliai and played there until the end of the 2005–06 season. He joined Lietuvos rytas in 2006 and stayed there for 7 seasons. Despite being a solid player at first, his career in Lietuvos rytas quickly went downward, and he was eventually released in May 2013. In August 2013, it was announced that Jomantas signed with Pieno žvaigždės. He later played a season for Dzūkija and Šiauliai, and came back to Lietuvos rytas in 2016. In 2018, he returned to Dzūkija and played 4 seasons there until signing with his hometown team, Mažeikiai, in the summer of 2022. He's been playing there ever since.
