Ricky Council. Hot hand or an All-star hiding in plain sight?

That’s called the Baylor Special. I’m excited to watch Ja’Kobe Walter go 5/15 FG and 9/10 FT whenever he plays his SL game.

Amazing how much talent we have found in the 2nd round and in the pool of undrafted players. Reed, Bassey, Joe, Council and even Bona looks quite legit?

Hope that Council keeps shooting threes, not just in the 4th quarter when the first two go in.

3 years from now I think Council can be as good or better player than Mikal Bridges.

Similar to Keyonte George, GG Jackson went 0/10 from 3 last night (6/20 FG for the night). Absolutely insane. I think I'm out on prospects with a huge per-40 ppg but with abysmal FG%.

Unless you have Zach Edey on your team, there is no spacing in summer league. It's not surprising these dudes are missing all their threes. McCain tried a Batum three last night because no one was getting him the ball in any kind of position to shoot.

It wouldn't be a Philly summer league team if we didn't have a guard with subpar handles that is rail-thin so he gets moved off his spots with ease.

100%. You can definitely tell the guys who know they have a roster spot secured. They are at least willing to move the ball around and set other guys up. Those fighting for a spot, though not on this team, are all about trying to show what they can do.

Who is the best player (who wasn't just drafted) playing in Summer League? Has any A-list player ever just decided to play in Summer League and dominated?

I remember Jaylen Brown played a few years later than he should have one year.

Maxey played like one half of a game after his rookie year and it was pretty obvious he was too good then they pulled him.

Ricky Council is more deserving to play for the USA team than Tyrese Haliburton
