Hield looked really weak on that crossover attempt.

Jackson will be good, once he gets a reliable jumper.

Fultz wasn't exactly spectacular going 6-19 himself in one summer game. I thought Ball had a bad game. There were a couple of plays when he went around his man and looked like he had an easy bucket but decided to pass instead. That to me just shows it's all mental for him right now.

But the main issue is that we played real slow. The game dragged because there were tons of foul calls.

The issue with Ball is that his game isn't really about scoring. I was expecting like 10 points today and what I got was surprisingly worst. I thought he made some good passes out there however. But he's definitely got to get use to the NBA.

As for Ingram, 26 points should be the norm for him going forward. In the regular season I expect that to drop down a little to say, 22ppg. Ingram is really going to grow this season, especially since he is on a young team.

There is no way skeleton averages 22 a game or anywhere near that.

That's a bit of a stretch. Clippers summer league team has quite a few older vets out there that are adjusted to the nba level of play. We got basically five teens out there, 2 of them are still 19 in zubac/ingram with regular season experience....and Ball/Kuzma/Josh/Bryant in their first real NBA game and still probably 18 years old...and all of these guys have limited time playing together.

Most of those clipper summer league players are in their mid-twenties and probably play with each other on a regular basis.

It's kind of funny a skeleton is more durable than your whole core.

The only returning player is Brice who's like 23. Everyone else is new to the roster or a rookie.

That pass by Fox was very good. He's looking really good so far.

He's like a veteran PG already by doing that. I think he's going to be a great player.
