Hi all!
The last few years I've dropped a bunch of notes from Summer League. This year we broke them up by conference! Here is the East:

I learned a lot. And not just that I don't enjoy transcription!
Hope you enjoy!

Re: East Summer League Notes
The combination of the Thread Title + your username I thought this read, Eat **** Summer League Notes. It's Friday. I need to go home.

Re: East Summer League Notes
Washington Wizards
On Troy Brown Jr.: “He’s going to be pretty good. We had a lot of success with Otto (Porter Jr.) and Kelly (Oubre Jr.) and we think Troy can have a similar path. He needs time to develop his game and body, but we’ve got the depth that will give him that time.”
On the offseason additions: “Dwight (Howard) gives us something different than what we’ve had. Marcin (Gortat) was terrific for us for years, but Dwight’s a different guy. We know we’ll get 10 rebounds and a couple of blocks for sure. But we think he can give us some scoring around the rim, which opens things up for our other guys. Adding Austin (Rivers) and Jeff (Green) gives us two vets who have been there. They can both give us some scoring off the bench and they know what they are doing and where they are supposed to be. That’s big for us.”
On Thomas Bryant: “We’re completely capped out, so adding talent is tricky. Thomas is a big guy who dominated the G-League. Guys like that are worth a look. If he hits, we have a guy we can develop and keep around. If not, we didn’t lose anything at all.”
