CHALKIDA (FIBA U20 European Championship 2016 Division B) - Great Britain left it late, but even in a low scoring affair with the Netherlands, the British team stayed perfect.

Rens Butter gave the Dutch a 38-36 lead with 2:30 minutes remaining. Great Britain then found their stroke and connected on three consecutive possessions, with Callum Lawson and Pharroh Gordon creating a 6-0 run for a 42-38 lead heading into the final 90 seconds. Netherlands scored on a couple of free throws, but Gordon and Lawson held their nerve at the other end to give Great Britain a 48-40 win in Group C.

Lawson scored a game-high 18 points on 6-of-9 shooting from the field. Great Britain's 4-0 record is enough to put them through to the Quarter-Finals, and they will fight another perfect team - Greece - for first spot in the group.
