Delininkaitis established his career in BC Lietuvos Rytas. Alongside Robertas Javtokas and Simas Jasaitis he led Rytas to a ULEB Cup trophy in 2005, although Rytas lost the LKL and Baltic Basketball League titles to their Lithuanian rivals Žalgiris.
The next season, Rytas played in the Euroleague where Delininkaitis began to fade away from his leadership role and he was left only as a reserve player. Still, Rytas had their best season that year, winning their easiest LKL series (4-0) against Žalgiris. In his last season with Rytas, Delininkaits was the team's sixth man and he helped Rytas reach their 2nd ULEB Cup final, which they lost to Real Madrid Baloncesto 75-87. In 2007, he signed with Azovmash Mariupol. In 2009, he joined Budivelnyk Kyiv. After playing a fraction of the 2008-2009 season, he moved to CB Murcia to start his 2009-2010 season. After the relegation and the financial problems of Murcia his contract was terminated and he joined PAOK BC in April 2010.
After winning bronze medals with Lithuanian national basketball team in the 2010 FIBA World Championship he was signed by Žalgiris Kaunas[1] and became a key player for the team.
