I live just under a 4 hour drive from Vegas and hotel rooms and AirBnB is cheap this time of year. It's really fun to not only check out the Wolves players, but your daily ticket covers all the games. It's an event. Celebrities are everywhere. I really recommend you check it out sometime.

Was planning on it this year but got a deal on a place in San Diego Friday to Thursday and with school starting for the boys soon did the family thing,

I’ll hit you up when I do go.

San Diego is great. My brother lives there and I finished my internship there.

Summer league tickets sold out today. I wonder if that's all about Wembanyama's NBA Debut.

Probably part of it.

I wouldn't discount Ignite fans going to see Scoot and Williams as well.

Do they generally not sell out?

I doubt it. I can't remember watching a summer league game on TV and not seeing a lot of empty seats.

When I was there last year none of the games were full and I didn't just watch the Wolves. The thing is that every ticket sold is a ticket for every game that day.

That was my other question if it was a day pass. That stinks really for people who are from different markets but they probably will be on sale on the street?

Miller looking incredible in that stint.

If people are looking for flashy from him, you're probably going to be disappointed. I think he's one of those players who is better in real-game situations.

Is Leonard Miller about to become the best second round pick ever made by Tim Connelly?

At best I think he can be a "true connector". A guy you barely notice, but helps you win.

At worst, he'll be unplayable because he doesn't appear to do anything at a plus level.

Hey guys the game is on NBA TV. It's also on ESPN+. It costs $10 bucks a month but really worth it. It has tons of live sports of all kinds. Plus tons of on-demand programming.

Brandon Williams has looked pretty good out there getting to the basket.

Ah that explains it, Wendell getting the Dyson Daniels treatment....no shame in that.

Not one of our "PGs" is doing anything to get a teammate an easy bucket.

Minott probably threw the best pass of the game so far to the rolling big (who blew the bucket).

Not sure why Miller hasn't played in the second here. I see him on the bench. Looked very impressive out there.
