Here are some highlights from USA 107, Lithuania 105 in overtime at the FIBA Under-19 World Championships. Jeremy Lamb scored 35 points to lead the US, and Florida’s Patric Young caps the highlights with a monster dunk over Torontos’ 2012 No. 1 draft pick, Jonas Valanciunas (30 points, 15 rebounds). According to USA coach Paul Hewitt, the kid on Lithuania Croatia who has been a major surprise is 17-year-old Dario Saric. Hewitt compared him to a young Dirk.
