It’s a big game for Team USA and the twins. They’re 3-0 and going up against Lithuania, who is also 3-0, and they have something that has given the U.S. problems in the FIBA World Cup: size.
Lithuania is led by Pelicans center Valanu010diu016bnas who is backed up by former Rockets big Donatas Motieju016bnas, both near 7-footers and very large human beings. They’re also two of the five Lithuanian players 6’9” or taller. Lithuania has former Knicks wings Ignas Brazdeikis and Mindaugas Kuzminskas as well as Knicks stash Rokas Jokubaitis, a very capable point guard.
