Kris Dunn is a freakin 'stud, his handle is smooth splitting defenders and breaking ankles and his midrange was good. Ingram is showing some more burst/ hesitation ability than everyone thought he had, really enjoying DLo's craftiness with his teardrops/post up turnaround. Zubac is a steal in the second round, already has an NBA body his footwork is really polished and that dropstep will be his go to move

I really wanted to get zubac or zizic on our team too

The Kings had a historically low scoring game lol

You have to be an internet expert to figure out how to find the stats from each SL game.

No, it's pretty easy. Go to nba.com, see the list of games, click on game you want to look at, and box score is an option.

That's better.

Some really interesting performances - Ingram, Russell, Dunn, Maker with some solid numbers.

Buddy Hield with a stinker.

Who is everyone most excited to watch in SL? Personally, I want to see the unicorn. We all know what Booker can do, and I expect when he plays he'll be working on weaker aspects of his game so I actually don't see him dropping more than 20. If Bender can play as aggressively as KP does I'll be pretty ecstatic.

Marquese Chriss for sure.

He could foul out after 10 minutes or score 30 points, nobody knows.

I think Bender will be solid, not expecting much variation, maybe a 15 / 7 type player if he gets good minutes.

That's what to expect when Willie Cauley-Stein takes the most shots on the team haha.

Thon Maker looked GREAT today (15 pts, 13 reb). Dunn looked pretty damn great too. Hield looked turrible (5-20 FG).

Maker's ID says he got 11 points and 9 rebounds though.

If i'm not mistaken you get 10 fouls in Summer League, right?

Definitely Bender. As much as people think Booker is our franchise guy, and I love Booker, I hope that Bender can be that REAL difference maker who just really ends up elevating everyone. He is so young, you have to take it in stride, but he has so many skills, if he is groomed properly, I believe he can become a real franchise cornerstone.

^I just hope he progresses faster than Len did. It's so frustrating developing bigs because they take so much more time.

We will see. He has so many more skills and is further along in development (despite being younger) that I expect him to develop faster. He is probably 2-3 years younger than Len was when drafted though, so he will take time to reach his peak, but I think and hope his skills show pretty quickly.

He doesn't really play like a big. He plays like a wing. Not sure how that will impact the speed of development but I would think it would be faster.

Dunn has a broken but fixable jumper. Man, I really wanted him but was happy with Bender too.

Lakers' rookies and sophomores look good and I hate it.
