As we suggested in our pre-game comments, Lithuania is a tough team and their size was going to be a problem.
Was it ever: Lithuania beat the US 110-104 and it was nowhere near that close.
The Lithuanians took over early, pulling out to a 33-15 lead just barely into the second quarter.
Jalen Jackson again got into foul trouble, which didn't help, and Lithuania dominated the boards, 43-27.
The loss stings - any US loss in international basketball stings - but it’s not life or death yet. It’s basically for seeding and Team USA has already qualified for the Paris Olympics.
