Summer League Roster rumors/confirmations?

I don't remember where I heard it but I heard something similar - that Alec is going to be working with our Summer League squad. I am not sure that means he will actually play. I think Favors was working with them last year too and he didn't play.
Gonna have an awful tough time with only 4 dudes... but seriously I kind of like Darion Atkins (though reports say he's going with the Spurs for SL).

Yep. ANYONE can play in summer league. Historically, it's only been first and second-year players, though. I think it's pretty impressive Alec wants to play, but I doubt we see him in any games. He'll likely practice, but I'd be very surprised if he gets any significant game-time action.

Haven't been told if Tibor Pleiss will play with the Jazz in summer league, but he's here so they might as well put him to work

That Lakers team looks pretty stacked.
Yeah, maybe Burks is treating SL as a rehab assignment.

Pleiss seems like a somewhat pedestrian Mozgov. Just not that athletic. But it will be interesting to see.

34 y/o Rasual Butler used the summer league to revive his career a few years back.

I'm sure many of us remember 25 y/o Patrick Beverley rudely introducing Trey to the SL.
Stat line from that game:
Trey Burke, 11 points, 2 assists, 2 rebounds, 4 turnovers, on 33% from the field.
Patrick Beverley, 11 points, 3 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 turnovers on 50% from the field.
I don't think Burks is even ready for full contact.
He is probably just practicing with the team.

Mozgov has improved a lot since he came over to the NBA. I remember a few years back when the Russians finished third in the Euro Cup, or was it the Olympics, forget which, he had no offensive game at all.
