Arizona guard Filip Borovicanin collected 26 points and 11 rebounds to lead Serbia to a 115-83 win over Korea in the first round of FIBA U19 World Cup knockout play.

A returning sophomore who is expected to play a key reserve role for the Wildcats next season, Borovicanin shot 11 for 15 fro the field while dishing three assists to one turnover.

Earlier Wednesday, fellow UA guard Kylan Boswell hit an early 3-pointer but was limited offensively in USA’s 96-69 win over China.

Boswell, who was coming off a minor leg injury suffered Tuesday, started and played 17 minutes, shooting 1 for 5 overall with no assists and two turnovers. He missed one assist opportunity when his lob pass to Colorado-bound Cody Williams did not turn into an alley-oop dunk.
