Read on Twitter

(Valencia Basketball- Havana Cuba)
He's a 6'9 220 lb forward with a high motor, embraces physicality, and embodies the attributes of focus, outworking opponents, doing the little things to win. somewhat basic without elite athleticism, but still possesses good fluidity and lateral movement to get to the rim. fits the mold of a glue with some potential to be a connective/blue-collar post big.

Hasn't really been released yet, but the Suns have added another player to their Summer league roster:

Louis Olinde

He's somewhat similar to a young nick Batum, although not as good of a defender. But still a long, versatile wing with smooth athleticism and good anticipation skills.

Jawun Evans once upon a time was a pretty decent prospect.
Lets see if he can do anything for us in the SL.

I didn't expect Jordan Goodwin on the Summer League roster, nice surprise.

We can watch three Suns players with guaranteed contracts. Goodwin, Camara and Todd.

It is gonna be interesting. The Renaissance of the Summer Suns.

Pretty much only thing that I care about: Goodwin showing up and showing what he about. It would be great if he could challange for the 5th starter spot (although Okogie, KBD and Yuta all have the upper hand in theory I think and Gordon would too, but I think he is OK with coming off the bench and maybe finish games here and there).

Happen to be in Vegas… Was going to go to the games. Suns play at Cox pavilion(?). Not Thomas Mac. Sold out. StubHub clipping you for a buck 20 GA for this Y-ball chuckfest with 95% unknowns destined for g-league and passport bball. They are like unorganized scrimmages.TV the best seat and even then you got to be a junkie to sit through more than a half. I remember now why i didnt pay much attention to it.

Crazy how ‘summer league’ has taken on the ‘spring training’ vibe. NBA hype machine has been effective pumping up prospects and milking minor celebs.

I've thought If I go to Vegas again it might be in summer league, but yeah, that games are not exciting. I thought it might be interesting just to see all the players, some stars, maybe not only at games but at casinos, etc.

Plus I could play some blackjack and make bank.

I really like being there in NFL season though. Their sports books are fun when they have the 10-15 games going on on Sunday.

few things more heated and exciting than a big sports book on a big game day or horserace. Vested interest on both sides. Lot of squirming and squalking.

There is some UFC fight tonight in Vegas that has the masses riled as well

Toumani playing the passing lanes really well. Super switchable
