Julian Mavunga (Brownsburg, Miami of Ohio) will also play.

Myck Kabongo will be on Miami's team.

Read earlier on twitter that Travis Releford (SF, Kansas) also got a invite from the Pacers.

Hopefully Watford lights it up from three; making the summer team exciting to watch. Looking forward to watching the expected improved play of Orlando Johnson; M. Plumlee; and looking forward to seeing what Solo can do. It will be interesting to see who will run the point.

Projected Summer league starters
???????-Pg (Hopefully not but probably Ben Hansborough)
O.Johnson
Solo
Mavunga/Watford (Either could be a possibility)
Plumlee

Watford is only signed for our summer league. He's the. Also playing for the Mavs in their summer league, which occurs after ours.

i'd love to see delledova have a shot at point

Per HoopsHype-

Former Gonzaga guard Steven Gray will play with the Pacers at the Orlando Summer League, agent John Spencer told HoopsHype.

Haven't seen the official confirmation yet. I'll update the roster once it becomes official.


I'm assuming our units will look like this:

Hansbrough/Gray
OJ/Teleford?
Hill/Watford
Watford/Mavunga
Plumlee/Jordan

Not official but i did find the tweet-

Looks as though Travis Releford and Christian Watford will both go to Indiana Pacers camp.

Add Gani Lawal to the list:

From IndyCornrows/Sportando.net:

Gani Lawal will play the NBA Summer League with the Indiana Pacers, according to Virtus Roma General Manager.

The big man spent one season in Serie A averaging 13.7ppg, 8.4rpg and 1.5bpg in 47 games.

--He's # 31 (sorry for the video quality)

^ I am glad we are going to see Gani Lawal on our team this coming summer league. If he rebounds and defends well like he is expected to do, I think he has a shot at making the roster. His addition could mean the end for one of our PF's though (Pendergraph, maybe even Hansbrough).

Updated initial post with the official summer league roster....

Also, long-time assistant Dan Burke will coach the summer league team. It appears that the original plan was for Boylen to coach, but with him leaving for SA, it left it up in the air.

Jonny Flynn? Interesting.
