Stanley Johnson is only being put in positions to fail - so if he looks like crud, don't be too concerned. He might be told only to use his left and/or only go left, or might be told only to shoot from certain spots or pass the ball within x amount of seconds sorta deal...

Sabonis would be with the OKC team wouldn't he? And Orlando will still have a sick team with Hezonja, Gordon, Payton

Knicks Summer League Roster:
Notables are Cleanthony Early, Ron Baker, Marshall Plumle, Dajuan Summers (!), and Louis Labeyrie (apparently a 2nd round pick for the Knicks a few years ago)

[tweet]https://twitter.com/NY_KnicksPR/status/747492412826783744[/tweet]

Orlando Blue:

Apparently Hezonja is skipping in order to play in the Olympics as well. So the only draft picks available for Orlando are second round pick Stephen Zimmerman and last year's 2nd Tyler Harvey. Everyone else are UDFA or free agents like Alex Polythress and Shavon Shields

Indiana:

Can't find much on them besides Georges Niang is playing and a few other UDFAs that I don't know. Can't see any mention of Myles Turner so he might be skipping.

Miami:

Appears to be an all UDFA team I think. Includes Nic Moore, Damion Lee and Briante Weber.


So yeah, we might not play another team with a 1st round pick.

Doubt he makes the team but I've always really liked Jarvis Varnado. SVG said hes looking to add 2 more big man so maybe he could be one of them.

Good shot blocker.

Looks like the right roster for Marshall Plumlee to make the team lol

Who was the big whitey center that was semi-decent for our SL team last year? I remember that all but one big guy really, really sucked.

PG - Phil Pressey
PF - Brandon Davies

These are the only guys I can see making the roster...

Dre, Baynes, Henry
Harris, FA, Davies
Mook, SJ, Bull
KCP, Meeks, Hilly
RJ, Benji, Pressey

Maybe Horford is the play after all?
