Who else is gonna play for the Suns in Las Vegas this summer?

Probably Jenkins, Williams, Alec Brown

Booker is too good,
Bogdan is playing for his national team,
Warren is still recovering from the injury,
Archie?

IIRC Williams said on a interview that he is gonna play for the Summer Suns (he has a team option for next season) and Archie said that he doesn't want to play in the Summer League this season because he has been there three consecutive years or something like that.

I'm curious to see if they have booker play. Personally I wouldn't but I don't think it's a definite that they won't have him play at least a couple games.

Does anyone know if it conflicts with the timing/practice of the NBA select team?

Summer League (July 8-18)
US practices (July 18-21)

I don't think he'll play anyway. For us it'll probably be Williams, the rookies and the free agents.

Warren barely began running again. Not sure he’s even close to ready for SL. @Dave King

Archie and Len can't play since they've already been in three SLs, right? And Warren's probably still healing...

So that leaves Ulis/Booker/Bender/Chriss/?

I don't think there's a limit. I know that Gortat played 4 years in the Summer League.

Of course he will. We are also guaranteed to have an Adam Silver press conference during a Suns game.

Troy Williams I'd like to see...if he locks in mentally on defense he can make a difference and make a roster. Then use that time to refine his jumper.

He also said Booker won't play much but will probably still be around the team and Nate is coaching the team again

Return to Phoenix Suns
