Andrew Betts led GB’s scoring with 12 points and eight rebounds and Joel Freeland 10 points and seven rebounds.

GB made a terrible start to the game, trailing 28-9 after nine minutes and only briefly threatened a comeback.

The losing margin is the worst the team has suffered in 37 internationals under coach Chris Finch in four years.

Missing starting point guard Flinder Boyd, who turned an ankle against Spain, GB turned the ball over nine times in the first quarter against Lithuania’s pressing defence.
