Here's the Vegas schedule, which begins on Thursday with all 30 NBA teams.

There are two smaller leagues in California (Lakers, Heat, Spurs, Warriors only) and Utah (Jazz, Sixers, Grizzlies, Thunder only) that began on July 5 and end on Tuesday.

Are these guys going to practice before the game on Friday? It seems like we got a lot of content from the practices in the years past.

Does a productive summer league cement TDS's role in a nine-man rotation?

nope. no overreactions to SL. but it would give the team confidence in his expected play for the season

I think TDS has to worry about Penda taking his minutes.

I feel like we always play extra safe with SL anyway. Like two and a half games max usually for most of our guys lol.

Uhhh no

Summer League is purely entertainment value and nothing beyond that.

He'll def be in the rotation early on though while Moe is out though regardless.

Suggs/Tyus
Bane/Black
Franz/TDS
Paolo/Isaac
WCJ/Goga

Sprinkle in Jase/Penda/Jett

I actually feel our FO resents us playing SL.

Its like the league pointing a gun to our heads and making us field a team to play. lol

Nikola Topic is playing tonight for OKC.

Can't make a shot, but is doing some nice things otherwise.

Not on Twitter so apologies if someone pointed it out, but I just noticed the Magic’s Summer League roster is different. They made some changes this weekend. https://magicweb.blob.core.windows.net/resources/communications/orlando-magic-2025-26-summer-league-media-guide.pdf

Skal Labissiere has been added.
Djordjie Jovanovic and Marcus Bingham Jr. are no longer listed.
So Orlando has 19 instead of 20 players for now.

Great find.

Skal still circling the drain at 29 years old.

I kind of liked Bingham Jr. as a sleeper :lol:

I was really curious about Jovanovic. I know many other fans were penciling Bingham Jr for a 2-way spot.
