The Dream Team have disposed Lithuania by 36 points in a friendly international last night.
Basketball's strongest power flexed their muscles yesterday as they beat Olympic hopefuls Lithuania 120-84.
From the start, the difference was there to be seen. The Dream Team built a commanding 16 point lead during the first term.
While Lithuania did close the gap somewhat, the USA regained their composure in the second half.
Six players from the USA finished with more than ten points. Dwayne Wade (19), Howard (17) and Redd (16) all performed well.
Lithuania's top scorer was Kaukenas with 17 points for the match.
After such a dominant victory, the Dream Team will be looking to claim the Olympic Gold after falling short in Athens 2004.
USA will begin their campaign in group B alongside World Champions Spain.
