Meanwhile, Amar Alibegovic paced Bosnia and Herzegovina with 22 points, while Dzanan Musa contributed 21 and Aleksandar Lazic had 17.
Serbia jumped out to a 30–23 lead after the first quarter and widened the margin with a 34–16 second period, effectively putting the contest out of reach by halftime.
They will continue their preparations against Poland in another tune-up match tomorrow.
