Tournaments naturally get tougher as they go on and that’s certainly true for the US: Sunday morning Team USA gets Lithuania, and Lithuania is never an easy out.
A bit surprisingly, the only NBA player on the roster is Jonas Valanu010diu016bnas, who plays with Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson in New Orleans.
Valanu010diu016bnas is 7-0 and that points to a potential problem for the Americans. Steve Kerr put together a team that is small and quick, but potentially vulnerable to a bigger team, especially on the boards.
And Valanu010diu016bnas has company: Donatas Motieju016bnas is also 7-0 and three others are 6-9.
