I don't think i've ever seen the full games but if a player has a good game they will post the highlights on youtube. I think Warren and Booker have a lot of games on there

It's like $5 to buy the summer league pass and watch them on the internet via the actual nba.com site.

Immediate feedback for GMs and Draft picks! I love that SL is so soon after the draft.

I'm looking forward to seeing Bender and Chriss style of play, I'd love to see them rebounding and creating shots, the other stuff probably comes easy to them.

Me too! The real off-season starts after SL when we have that month long break before preseason :(

I like this player. A glue guy SF, can defend and is athletic.

Sacramento native Michael Bryson will be on the Phoenix Suns Summer League roster - joining Elk Grove's Marquese Chriss.

I'm excited and hoping to see these guys get up and down the floor, hit some jump shots, put home some dunks and block some shots - but I'm also preparing for the fan meltdown if they look like baby moose out there. #WaitForTheAntlers
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

I'm sure it won't all be pretty but there should at least be some exciting moments. It will be interesting to see how manhandled we get on the boards. Hopefully we don't just give up a ton of offensive rebounds. That's the biggest fear with these guys. That's why I was originally hoping if we went boom/bust with the first pick we'd get someone like Sabonis with the 2nd. But I guess we are at least jumping on the roller coaster instead of the merry go round.

Williams elected to forgo his final year of college eligibility to stay in the draft and was seen as a divisive prospect in some respects. His prodigious athleticism and explosiveness played in his favor. His persistent inconsistency and a two-way game still requiring polish at both ends of the floor did not.

He debunked suggestions Friday that he had signed with the Houston Rockets when reached by IndyStar. Instead, according to an official announcement from IU, Williams will play in the NBA's summer league with the Phoenix Suns.


http://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2016/06/24/ius-troy-williams-yogi-ferrell-go-undrafted/86324292/.

DX Strengths includes rebounding, athleticism, running the floor in transition, explosivensess and defensive potential at 6'7. Also shot 46% from 3, 54% from 2. saintEscaton probably watched him a lot since he's a Hoosier fan.

Does anyone know if you can bet on NBA summer league games in Vegas?

Dude you can you can bet on anything. You can bet on alien life coming to earth or whether the next James Bond will be black (current odds on Idris Elba are 16/1 btw).

You can also bet on how many months a professional hockey team will last in Vegas. 4/1 odds it's less than 60 months.

Gotta ask LV-Suns since he lives there. I think he mentioned he went to some games last year, he just walked in I think.

nice, thanks.

noticed that Booker isn't listed. anyone have any updates about whether Book is going to play? Someone in my office said he would be playing but I didn't see anything about it.

When I googled 'Booker Summer League' I saw a tweet from our old friend @IAmDPick saying that Devin Booker would be playing for the Knicks SL team. apparently there is a dopplebooker in the French league:
