Not sure if this has been mentioned before-
'Airbnb Boomers fans will get to see FOUR GAMES of the pre-FIBA Basketball World Cup tour LIVE on ESPN, with all three games of the Nice Tournament against the Ukraine, Philippines and France as well as the final game of the team's preparation against France in Strasbourg.'
Great news!

there is an online app for lithuanian television called LRT Grotuvas. it streams the national television stations live.
if they are televising the games in Lithuania (which i think is likely) you will be able to watch them live via this app.
I also know they show the lithuanian league games on this station so you can watch those games on this app when the season comes round again.
hope that has been of some help.
Nice move by ESPN they support basketball unlike Fox Sports - what a ueseless station they are no bball at all for a few seasons now.
