Cybas was 27 years old when he died on Friday night
Prosecutors are investigating his death after a shocked passerby spotted his body on Saturday morning and called it in.
Cops are studying CCTV footage and interviewing witnesses to see if it was an accident or a homicide.
Cybas, 27, may have lost his balance and fallen over the wall while under the influence of alcohol, police have said.
But prosecutors have ordered an autopsy on the athlete’s body to help determine whether or not he could’ve been pushed.
Cybas had been partying with friends at a club in Genoa, Italy, on Friday night.
After a few drinks, he reportedly got into a disagreement which escalated.
The bouncers then escorted him out of the venue.
The basketball pro, from Lithuania, was staying with a friend who played for local team Basket Sestri at the time.
According to his social media, he was playing for Bjerringbro BK, a Danish side made up of Lithuanians, at the time of his passing.
The investigation into his death is ongoing.
