I love that we get to play the other high lottery teams in the group stage

As of right now the roster hasn't been released.

PG: Scoot, Antoine Davis
SG: Sharpe, Malachi Smith
SF: Murray, Rupert
PF: Walker, Butler?
C. Badji

who else? Jeenathan Williams? Skylar Mays?

Some great games with Houston (Thompson), SA (Victor), Charlotte (Miller) and Orlando {Black)

Too bad the Pistons were not in this group for we'd see the all the top picks in the 2023 draft

Are we sure Sharpe will be there?

am very interested to watch all these new guys, especially Badji as he is a Schmidt guy and had that knee injury (healthy now I hope) so we did not see him play

Badji was blasting in the G League before his injury. I am excited to see him. Brings vertical athleticism we have lacked at C for years.

Athletic guy with a 7' 8" wingspan, good rebounder/shot blocker, be interesting to see what he's got

Do the Blazers hold any rights to Badji, or is it just assumed he'll play for Portland in Summer League after being on a two-way previously? Sorry, I'm just not up to date on this guy.

Hopefully he isn't, I want to see Scoot get as many touches as possible and Sharpe as healthy as possible for the real season

Shows as an RFA on Spotrac.com. is he healthy though? I believe William's is under contract, as well so I would think he'll play since he only played the last 5 games for the Blazers.

Is it confirmed if Shae is playing in SL?

OK, did a little more digging, and the Blazers have to extend a qualifying offer for him to become a RFA. Anybody know if they did or plan to? Otherwise he's up for grabs.

If we repeat, it will be because our scouts signed the best g-league players available.

How many summer league titles did Roy/Aldridge/Oden win?

I think he showed too much ability at the end of the season.

Will Rupert have a better SL than Batum?

Hey, JasonStern how many summer league world championship titles (I'm talking about CHAMPIONSHIPS, not one champioship) the Blazers will win?

I live in LV, so considering a ticket to the Sunday game, but would be much better if Sharpe was there. Also, by Sunday, there’s a like 60% chance both Scoot and Wemby are shut down.

Just noticed that the Blazer G-League team has been branded as "Rip City Remix", with the Blazer logo turning into a bit of an LP...

I love it. Great work, Blazers...

This is apparantly our SL Roster. No Shadeon. Not too surprised at that. I thought we might get to see more of our scrubs on the team though, like Keon Johnson...but not sure if this list is really complete.

Antoine Davis – Detroit
Scoot Henderson – G League Ignite [Pick No. 3 in 2023 NBA Draft]
Jo Lual-Acuil – Dynamo Lebanon (Lebanon)
Kris Murray – Iowa [Pick No. 23 in 2023 NBA Draft]
Duop Reath – Al Riyadi Beirut (Lebanon)
Rayan Rupert – New Zealand Breakers (New Zealand) [Pick No. 43 in 2023 NBA Draft]
Malachi Smith – Gonzaga

Likely there will be some additions for second year guys like Walker will be playing
