First night of games.

Jackson could be real deal. 29 points. Sweet 3 point stroke.

About to watch Kings- Lakers. Looking forward to how Bagley transitions. Harry Giles too.

Wagner looks good early on. He’s going to get minutes this season with the Lakers. Game doesn’t seem too fast for him.

Crazy.  May have underestimated Jackson Jr.

Read that Doncic may not play SL, too

Nah. Watch the highlights. Two of the shots were prayers. The rest were the result of a hot night.

My issue with Jackson has not been his shooting. It's the rest of his game, including rebounding.

I like him as a player, but this game was an anomaly.

TP for the thread, footey :). #BeatMeToIt

Any idea as to where I can find the actual box scores to these games, though, because nba.com is awful and no one else seems to be reporting them :-\. Weird.

Giles moves well and doesn't look like the knee injury type....hope he stays healthy....and that his health leads to no extra Kings wins.

Jackson's highlights.

Apparently, the NBA 3 point line is no problem for him.  8 threes.

No way should Doncic play.  He’s played over 2,000 minutes of competitive basketball this year, with his season ending two weeks ago.  He needs a break more than he needs summer league.

Trae Young starting his Summer League season 6-31 (2-15) is a bit surprising

Putting up good numbers in summer league means less than putting up bad ones.

NBA.COM, Beat LA. But you have to wait for the game to finish before you can download the box score.

Putting up good numbers in summer league means less than putting up bad ones.

And putting up bad ones means very little about the top prospects. It says close to nothing about them.

This league is really for the fringe NBA players trying to earn a contract.

Those numbers aren’t surprising at all really. His shot selection is garbage
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

It's worse competition than the G-League.
