England’s Eliandro Inacio holds off a Croatian defender in his side’s 58-73 defeat on Friday night.
Croatia beat Poland 70-67 in the final of the third annual Future Stars International Junior Basketball Tournament at Kingston College on Sunday.
The event, organised by Richmond upon Thames College in partnership with London United Basketball club, also featured national U18 teams from France, Poland, Sweden, England and a Richmond Select team.
