Too bad the games aren't on a little earlier. Oh well. I might re-watch some of yesterday's game with a focus on 1-2 players.

Duren on why he wanted to play in summer league: “I want to be out here with my guys. There’s no reason for me to be sitting at home when I can be out here getting better.”

I wonder if we’re using the same starting lineup or if Isaiah livers is back.

If we use the same lineup, it will be very interesting to see how Duren and try to defend Jabari Smith Jr who dropped 33 (28 in 2nd half) and an incredible game winner in his first summer league game. After a somewhat disappointing rookie year, I think he's going to be big time for them this year as a sophomore.

Also will be interesting to see how Cam does against us as you know he is going to want to go after all those teams that passed him by on draft night.

Wiseman with a nice triple and Ausar with a nice tip in for our first 5 points.

Wiseman shows the ability to grab the rebound and take it right to the other rim and nearly throw in a monster dunk.

Thompson is too tentative for me. It seems like Weaver likes tentative players. It will be the reason why he will be fired in a year!

Isn't he still one of our two way contract guys? Or is he just a summer league player now?

Jabari is legit. Ausar playing tight and uncomfortable. That entry pass he through reminded me of when a 13 year old makes his way into an adult run
