Lithuania Team News
Although they are coming to the championship with a very weakened team, Lithuania is still one of the main favorites for a medal and the highest ranking. In the first round, they “broke” Egypt as a result, in the end, it was +26 for Lithuania, but it was far from the fact that they did not struggle against Pharaoh. Although they led the entire game, Egypt stood very well, especially in the second and third quarters. However, at the end of the third quarter, the Lithuanians found a shot from the field and broke the Egyptian zone. Although Valanciunas had a double-double in the first half already, he struggled a lot with Marei. In the end, he had 15 points and 10 rebounds. The key players for Lithuania were Bendzius and Normantas, who started the match with a series of three-point shots and made a big advantage in favor of the Lithuanian national team.
Against Mexico, he will have to show much more, above all Jokubaitis, who played a desperate match against Egypt. There is a lack of creativity in Lithuania’s game, but they are simply a much better team than Mexico and they have to show it.

Mexico Team News
Mexico played a very solid match against Montenegro, especially the first half, but in the end, the quality and width of Montenegro showed up and the Mexicans were defeated by 20 points, we would say that is too much compared to everything shown. Mexico played a great first half. They punished all of Montenegro’s mistakes in the first half forced them into a large number of turnovers and scored easy points in transition. But in the end, they didn’t have a solution for the moody Vucevic.
In the ranks of Mexico, Pako Cruz stood out in particular, he was the most effective with 16 points and added 6 assists. Cruz is the driving force behind Mexico’s game. In addition to Cruz, the experienced Paul Stoll, who added 10 points and 7 assists, played an important role in the organization of the game. An excellent match against Montenegro was played by corpulent center Ibarra, who scored 13 points and was the only one to somewhat match Vucevic under the basket.

Lithuania vs Mexico Prediction
Lithuania will have to play much better and more consistently than in the match against Egypt. In particular, they will have to improve the organization of the game, and provide their centers, who are dominant in the 1-on-1 game, with more usable passes. Quality is on Lithuania’s side and we expect a sure victory.
