Montenegro Team News

Montenegro recorded two victories and secured the second round, defeating first Mexico with a 20-point difference, and then Egypt. In the second match, they did not play at the maximum number of revolutions. First of all, in the second half, coach Borko Radovic kept the “second five” on the court for a long time, which maintained the difference. They did not excel defensively and allowed Egypt many easy points.

The team is led by Nikola Vucevic who dominates under the basket and makes a huge difference. In addition to shooting a great 18/25 from the field in this championship, Vučević is excellent in defense. Alongside him, is Nikola Ivanovic performed best, who is the main attacking option from the back positions.

The problem for Montenegro is the poor form of Bojan Dubljevic and Nemanja Radovic, who, when they are together on the court, have big problems defensively.

However, in this match, we expect a far more serious approach from all Montenegrin players and the maximum involvement of both Perry and Dubljevic.

Lithuania Team News

Lithuania recorded two very convincing victories in the first two rounds. Although the game was very different against Egypt and Mexico. Against Egypt, they struggled a lot against the “pharaoh” zone and broke the resistance only in the middle of the third quarter, while against Mexico, they showed quality from the start and were convincing from the start of the game.

Although Mexico opened the match excellently with long-range shots, Lithuania responded to each of their attacks and the difference only grew. An excellent match was played by Rokas Jokubaitis, who was the most effective player in the match with 15 points and added 7 assists. Jonas Valanciunas also added 15 points and 12 assists and was unstoppable for Mexico’s defense.

Much will be envied by the duo of Jokubaitis and Valanciunas, Above all that Rokas is the only real creator in the Lithuanian team and opens the most open positions for Lithuanian centers.

The great advantage of Lithuania in this match is the width and quality of players from the bench, who bring great quality, first of all, we think of Normantas, Dimsa, and Bendžius who are excellent shooters from a distance, while Brazdeikis is one of the best players in 1 on 1 game in the entire championship.

Mr. Double-Double ✌️➕✌️
