Nice to see DJ make at least one of those two big free throws.

10.5 remaining with Babbitt at the line down by 2. He bricks the first and hits the 2nd.

Clippers escape with a 1 point victory. Summer League games shouldn't be so stressful lol.

Big game by DJ with 12 points, 11 rebounds and 5 blocks. That's more like what I was expecting out of him. Bledsoe had a cool game, although his stats may not show it. Only 3 turnovers after 17 in the first 2 games, plus the team was at its best when he was on the court. Blakely had a very nice game 14 & 6 and a timely block that helped us hold onto the victory. Aminu had a nice start along with the rest of the team, but kind of faded as the game went on. A roller coaster game for us. We let a 20 point lead evaporate, but it's good for them to experience having a close game down the stretch where every possession matters.

Aminu... worries me. It looks like all he can do is defend and rebound. At least Q. Ross had somewhat of a handle. =/

From the highlights it looks like Aminu is alright on offence, meaning his dribble game. But i have noticed hes shooting a very bad percentage.

Honestly Aminu hasn't shown me anything that makes me think taking him 8th overall was worth it. I hope he at least has ONE dominant game this summer league

Aminu seems to be getting a little better each game. While he seems to have good form on his shot, they're just not going in. IF he was making his shots, you can see that with some experience he could be a nice player for us. He rebounds well and plays solid defense, let's hope those two things can carry him through until he refines his stroke.

Yeah, Aminu was a little better each game. His dribbling looked awkward at times, but it seems like he's able to move around pretty well. Even if his offensive game does need some time to develop, as long as he works hard on the other end, he can still be an asset to this team.

Is this our last Summer League game?
If it is i hope especially Aminu has a big game for us to end on a high note. A lot of the other rookies seemed to have done that, leave there best for last, lets hope we see the same from AFA.

We play Korolev and the D-League team tomorrow, but that one won't be on TV. This will be Sofo's last game, because he's headed back to Greece to join their national team. So I'm hoping that Demopoulos will feature him a little more tonight.

Aminu needs to work on his handles and keep it simple right now. That's two plays in a row that he tried to be fancy and turned them both over.

Return to Los Angeles Clippers
