NBA Summer League Wild Overreaction Thread

In the past I've tried to make sure and watch at least one SL game per rookie. There are a bunch of guys this year that I haven't seen yet, including Jase.

His game vs TOR was particularly impressive imo. +10 in a game where they lost by 3. And only one turnover in a game where his team had 29. He was a calming presence.
 
Derik Queen out at least 3 months with wrist surgery.

Thats why teams don't want to overplay players in SL. He just lost an entire off season
Yeah you could make a pretty strong argument against summer league in general with incidents like these.

Yes, summer league is stupid

Kon is really good in pnr. Also looks like he’s a pretty nifty passer once he gets into the second level of the defense. Idk that he ever becomes a strong finisher at the hoop but he’s pretty crafty.
 
I'm very surprised that Charlotte let him play as much as they did.
I guess if he gets hurt then they are 1 step closer to AJ, boozer, Peterson

Here is an overreaction and confirmation bias from summer league:

Javon Small might be the third second round pick that Memphis has nailed in a row. He'll likely only get playing time if there are injuries, but it feels like that is almost guaranteed with Memphis and specifically Ja right now. I love Scotty Pippen Jr, but I think Small might be the better player offensively.

Javon Small only played two games in Vegas, and admittedly they were at the end of the SL, so less good players were playing, but here are his stats per RealGM:

Per36Minutes: 26.4pts, 7.0reb, 10.9ast on 48/50/89 shooting splits. That would be 12th highest points and highest assists of all players with at least 20 mpg.

4th highest PER, 5th highest differential (ORtg-DRtg), and #1 in Pure Point Rating where he was 15.3 and next highest was 7.1 (https://basketball.realgm.com/nba/s...ats/Qualified/points/All/desc/1/Summer_League)

Also admittedly, these stats are almost completely meaningless based on two summer league games, but I'll go ahead and glaze him while I can.
