Our gem, Jayson Tatum, ends the summer at #2 after occupying the first spot for the majority of the summer.

For perspective, Jaylen ended last year at #7.

Of course, none of this really means anything... ;D ;D ;D

probably due to him missing the last 2 games due to a quad injury, but yea i agree, it doesn't mean much

  • Yup
It's amazing how much more hyped this summer league season was compared with the past.  The Ball hype and curiosity over Fultz and a closely rated crop rookies made revved up the hype machine for sure.
Yup

Right, and I doubt he was truly injured. The C's are just taking extra precautions with him.

Tatum only made 2nd team for Vegas SL too. Ball and DSJ made 1st team with JJ. I think its bc he missed a couple games. IMO Tatum is the one that showed the most NBA ready game and jumper out of anyone on the 1st team.

There's probably a Philly hospital room somewhere taking down the name plate "Simmons" and underneath that "Embiid" and putting up "Fultz" with another plate on the table that says "Rookie 2018"

I can't see embiid ever playing a full season.
