Hey it's never too early for summer league.

First player I know about is Perrin Buford, who they worked out in last year's draft.

I would assume at least these guys participate, and they make a nice starting five:

1 - D.Jackson
2 - Fultz
3 - Brown
4 - Yabusele
5 - Zizic
6th man - Nader

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.
Yabusele is hurt will not participate. Mickey may though.

If Yasubule is hurt, that will impede him from improving this summer.  I think it would be in the team's best interest to keep him abroad one more season, especially if he can get more repetitions. What are the chances they ask him to go abroad for one more year?

I feel like Zizic would explode already this season if he just gets enough minutes.

Yabusele (not Yasubule, LOL) is hurt, as it's been said. Besides, maybe Zizic is playing with his national team and doesn't go to summer league either.

I can settle for watching them at full speed since the beginning of training camp. For SL, we'll have Jackson, Nader, Jaylen, our picks this year (1, 37 and a couple of 50s) and maybe some undrafted FAs or guys who have played for Maine this year. I don't know if third year players (thinking about Mickey) will play. They usually don't but in cases such as James Young with few NBA minutes it helped, so there is a possibility Mickey plays to keep his place in the league.

I'm excited for ante, but I'm a bit worried about his defense.

So, what's the roster?

Guards
  Jackson
  Davis
  Smith
  Rozier, probably won't

Wings
  Brown - says he wants to
  Bird
  Buford
  Tatum
  Nadar
  Ojaleye

Bigs
  Lucus
  Mickey? - might not
  Theis  - might not, due to former team still playing/long season
  Zicic  -  might not, due to visa concerns/long season
  Yabasele - won't, due to injury

The nice thing about Summer League is that it's excellent for ruling out weak-sauce bigs.  Any NBA roleplayer should absolutely dominate in summer league because of the utter lack of talented centers.

If Zizic doesn't dominate SL we'll know right away he belongs back in Europe.

I don't think Zizic needs to DOMINATE SL, but play well. He's going to have a huge learning curve for American play and culture. And he's still young and some what raw in the scheme of things.

I wouldn't be surprised if Tatum out rebounds him. One of Tatums strengths. But if Zizic is close or better than Tatum in that department, I'll be happy.
