NBA Summer League Thread
-
Haven’t seen a thread on this, but this actually started to today with Spurs playing one of the Jazz teams
If there are any highlights or impressive performances from the Summer League, put them here!
-
like @Kobe6Rings said, Lakers playing on ESPN 2
-
Lakers got Zavier Simpson on their roster? dude was a dime dropper at Michigan
-
I’m ready for GIDDEYMANIA
-
No kuminga and Moody until tommorrow
Justinian Jessup is playing tonight though, and he might possibly make the roster. -

That was my GUY 2 years ago. Need him to show out and grab a spot.
-
I’ll never forget when Lonzo was in the Summer League, and people were flipping out about his shoes
dude was a summer league GOAT tho -
@zackdesenfants Kuzma was too lol
-
-
Lots of college experience and scoring on this Lakers team.
Just wanna show their averages in their last year of college
Mac McClung (Texas Tech)- 15.5 pts, 3 reb, 34% from 3
Austin Reaves (Oklahoma)- 18 pts, 6 reb, 5 asts, 31% from 3
Zavier Simpson (Michigan)- 13 pts, 5 reb, 8 asts, 36% from 3
Joel Ayayi (Gonzaga)- 12 pts, 7 reb, 3 asts, 39% from 3
could definitely be some future bench contributors there @Kobe6Rings
-
@zackdesenfants Good write up. The more I read on Ayayi it looks like the Lakers got away with murder. Most analysts saying he was high on draft boards but told teams not to take him to play in LA.
-
@kobe6rings Great player on the undrafted market and should’ve been early-mid second round imo. 6’5 with a 6’7 wingspan, 39% from 3. could honestly make the Day 1 roster
-
@zackdesenfants Just got a steal and went coast to coast. I like him lol

It takes 2 secs to search a scouting report to know this
-
@manulous them other dudes just look like filler players. they should have Ben Simmons play and just have him chuck 3s
-
MacAttack
-
What a block by Mac
-
@shinostique I’m excited too. Thunder and Spurs are my second teams
-
@manulous who is bassey?
And since when was frank mason on the team -
@nd13 Bassey was a top high school basketball recruit.
Averaged 18 pts, 12 reb, 3 blocks at Western Kentucky. 30.5 percent from 3 as well on 2 attempts a game
-
@zackdesenfants I just looked into him. He looks really good. If he was a 5 star recruit how did he go so low in the second round
-
@nd13 he was the #53 pick. Thicc boy who rebounds like a monster and was a great rim protector in college. He would have been a lottery pick if he left after his freshman year but he went back and then got hurt. By many accounts I've heard/read he returned from injury even better and stronger.
Super excited to see him play and to see if that jumper continues to develop to the 3pt line.
-
@nd13 he was a 3 yr college player. He put up solid stats in college and Id say he has a decent amount of potential. But idk if he will live up to it with Embiid
-
This kid on Miami has 23 points and 18 rebounds. My goodness lol

Lmao all of our centers are these types of dudes. Now Drummond and this dude.
We need a stretch 5 for the bench
-
Udoka Azubuike for Utah looks like Zion lol

Remembers him bricking free throws for days at KU
Good times
-
@nd13 Morey seems to think that he will be a shooter eventually. He shot 30% in college and 76% from the line.
Also, idk if you want to pay a backup C $7-12M+ a year but that's what Olynyk and Zach Collins got.
-
@manulous I actually liked the zack Collins signing. Not for a contending team like us, but for a team like the Spurs I thought it was good. He has a lot of potential but he hasn’t played the last two years cause of foot surgery. High risk high reward

@zackdesenfants said in NBA Summer League Thread:
Pacers summer league roster
Thunder still have no Summer League roster smh
-
All I know is that Cade, Saddiq, Kilian, and Garza are in, and Stewart/Livers are out.
-
@shinostique Theo Maledon+ Giddey+Poku is the Summer League big 3
-
@zackdesenfants said in NBA Summer League Thread:
Poku
I think Poku has been confirmed that he’s not playing in the Summer League
-
Davion Mitchell looks like hes moving at a different speed than everyone else.
-
kings playing in their own stadium
-
This jessup dude is trash lol
-
Yo can THT play summer league?
-
@luckykid
Pretty sure he can, but don’t know why he would risk it with a 10+ million contract next year. -
@dc80 You are right but I wanna see him play though to see how he improved
-
@luckykid
Agreed, dude has to have been in the gym ever since the Lakers got eliminated for him to get that deal. -
@dc80 I think the lakers has high hopes for him i wanna see that hope too and be hyped
-
-
-
@thebay1 I’m excited to see what Moody can do. I think he could make an instant impact off the bench
-
Pistons roster got released…. Imma just say that:
-
