You guys really think McD is gonna play in the summer league...? I don't find it all that necessary.

Hopefully Kulboka makes it over.

I agree, I think McDaniels has proven himself to be in the rotation.

Oh I see what Utah did. I made a mistake and thought that New Orleans drafted Jared Butler but it was Utah that did. But I just realized Utah signed someone via exhibit 10 contract. Guess who that player is. You guessed it....

Spoiler:

I am assuming/hoping they will play summer league...

DJ Carton and Denzel Mahoney are names I hadn't seen before associated with us.

Odd that Riller is not on the list.

Some people get good breaks in life. In this case it appears as if DJ Carton has that. He seems to be the ONLY PG on our summer league roster. You have to be extremely lucky to go undrafted and be the ONLY player available at a position in summer league lol. I am a fan of DJ so it will be fun watching him.

PG - DJ Carton

SG - James Bouknight, Scottie Lewis, Denzel Mahoney, LiAngelo Ball

SF - Cam McGriff

PF - Kai Jones, JT Thor

C - Vernon Carey, Nick Richards


I really wish we would have signed either JaQuori McLaughlin, or Obadiah Noel to play PG as well. Surprised noone has called NOEL yet. I like them both. JaQuori is playing with the Warriors. I wouldn't be surprised he makes their team.

I see no Riller or Keandre Cook. Bummer.

Surprising to see Riller on the roster, after he was released. Go figure. A gesture of kindness, perhaps? Dude has a really quick first step.

When does the moratorium lift?

I'd like Thornet to get as much PT during the SL as possible.

"In this league (NBA)"

Appreciate the clarification there, thought he was saying he wanted to just stay in summer league for the rest of his career. /s

First practice was today...I would've loved to be able to watch that.

Really looking forward to our first game on Sunday!

I didn't know there were other games on besides the ones on NBATV. I see Joshua Obesie made the Kings summer league squad. I want to see what Tyshon Alexander does for the Suns. I still wanna watch the Warriors game because I wanna see what JaQuori Mcglothin is gonna do

Lol better not burn them out seeing though they will get 8 minutes a game this season :crazy:

NBA players today. Spending their time either load managing or signing with the Nets and Lakers to ring chase.

Return to Charlotte Hornets
