I believe it was on a KCP podcast/show/whatever, TDS mentioned he will be playing in the Summer League.

Cant he play in both? SL kinda weak compared to FIBA prep

Nate Santos is interesting. Versatile wing player who shot over 40 percent from 3 last two years.

Jett one of the rare 3rd year players to play in the Summer League. Make or break season for him.

He's trying to get his option picked up for his 4th season. I don't think his value can get any lower.

It is not confirmed Jett playing for what it's worth.

That person is speculating he will play.

I don't think Jett plays unless they flat out ask him...If I'm him, I'm building the concept (even if just in my head) that he's been misused and should be thinking about the next stop.

Suggs and Oladipo played in their 3rd year, I dunno why Black and Jett both don’t play. Could use the on ball reps.

I don't think Suggs played the 2nd one.

Suggs only played in one summer league.

Black absolutely should not play. That dude has over 3000 NBA minutes already.

Jett probably should be playing, but I’m guessing he won’t.

I never thought of it as an issue either. Thought it was normal unless you are a full-time starter or bench player.

I'd like to see Black practice with them, but he's not needed for the games.

I'm even down for him to play one game.

I'd wish they would make the summer league more of an actual tournament with the winning team players receiving a substantial cash prize. There would be restrictions of course, since you mainly want players who are either young/rookies and players looking for an NBA opportunity.

Maybe unlimited the first 2 years of their careers but after that could not have played more than a certain amount of minutes in the previous season, etc...

Not interested in seeing Jett play in SL honestly.

Rather see JRichjr get all the on ball reps and play a two man game with Penda.

Also since JRichjr/Penda wont necessarily be counted on the be a major focal points on our team next year I hope they play more than the standard 2 games, like we have seen with high drafted players in summer league.

They couldn't find a REAL big man to take a look at? I know SL players rarely make the team, but when do you get such an obvious opportunity to take a look at someone with no real obligation?
