How both fared in their respective Game-1?
Lithuania:
World No-6 Lithuania blitzed past Senegal in Game-1, winning the match by a whopping 101-47 scoreline.
Dainius Adomaitis’ men were so efficient on the court that they didn’t allow the African opponent more than 14 points in any quarter. A complete dominant show.

But the Boomers had too much class on their roster in the end and won the game 108-92 after a 32-15 win in the penultimate quarter.
