James Bouknight (the guy I thought the Wolves might pick with the 7th pick, but went 11th to Charlotte): 19/4 on 7 for 14 shooting
LiAngelo Ball (Charlotte free agent): 16 points on 5 for 8 three-point shooting
Antonio Blakeney (former G League MVP and Beasley-like jailbird, now with Portland): 27 points on 10 shots in 18 minutes!
Jalen Green (2nd pick for the Rockets): 23/5/2 with 50% shooting
Alperon Sengun (16th pick to the Rockets, 19-year-old center from Turkey): 15/15/3 with 4 blocks
Evan Mobley (3rd pick to the Cavs): 12/5 with 3 blocks but poor shooting

Cade and Mobley already a bust. So happy wolves didn't keep their pick. Dodged the bullet (I'm kidding)

No doubt.
Cade 5-17 with 5 TOs, Mobley 6-17 with 5 TOs. That's enough evidence for me that both are stiffs. Once again Rosas showing his genius by keeping us from picking up these two losers!

Ditto. I'm so thankful we're not stuck with the likes of Cade Cunningham or Evan Mobley on our roster! Perhaps the genius of Gersson Rosas will someday be appreciated.

In no way am I suggesting Cunningham won't be a really good NBA player, but I can't find any hints of greatness in him yet. To me he seems a lot like your run of the mill top 10 pick. As much hype as I've heard since his AAU days, I personally haven't seen the justification. It's going to be very interesting to see who emerges as the best of this class. Today my lean is Mobley. You can't teach size.

Desmond Bane with a big game. Hell of a pick by Memphis last year. I wonder if he plays more than just a couple games here....doesn't seem like he needs a ton of reps in summer league unless they are trying to develop him into something other than a bench sniper.

I'm still unsure how he fell to the bottom of the first round.

This game was more physical and Bane was all about it. He was the closer in this game although Tillman certainly did his part. Tillie looks to be good shape and has a nice looking shot.
Reggie Perry is a large human and that compared to Tillman.
Brandon Knight is still playing basketball.

Quickley: 32/8 with only 1 TO. Kinda surprised to see him in SL, but not surprised to see him dominate
Trey Murphy (17th pick to the Pelicans): 26/9, 6-9 on threes
Suggs (5th pick to the Magic): 24 points and 9 rebounds
Jordan Nwora (2020 Bucks 2nd round pick): 30/8/6
