Here’s what to expect on Day 2 of NBA Summer League in Las Vegas
The second day of the 2017 NBA Summer League, which is sold out, will feature eight games in total — four in the Thomas & Mack Center and four in the adjacent Cox Pavilion.
The 11-day competition will present 67 games in total. A record 24 teams will participate in the tournament-style format, which culminates with a championship game that will be televised by ESPN on July 17.
Each team will play three preliminary games before tournament play begins July 12. Each team is guaranteed at least five games during the event.
GAME OF THE DAY
Philadelphia 76ers vs. Golden State Warriors — Markelle Fultz, the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s draft, will make his Las Vegas Summer League debut against the defending champs and UNLV product Patrick McCaw.
The 6-foot-4 Fultz showed flashes of brilliance in last week’s Utah Summer League and will draw a large crowd in the day’s final game in the Thomas & Mack Center. He will be joined by rookie teammates James Blackmon Jr. (Indiana), Isaiah Briscoe (Kentucky) and Melo Trimble (Maryland).
A quartet of Oregon Ducks — Jordan Bell, Chris Boucher, Elgin Cook and Dylan Ennis — will look to help McCaw and the Warriors.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
* Dillon Brooks, a Findlay Prep graduate who led Oregon to the Final Four in April, will make his Summer League debut when the Memphis Grizzlies take on the Washington Wizards in the Cox Pavilion at 1 p.m.
* The Chicago Bulls, who defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves in overtime in last year’s Summer League championship, will return to Las Vegas with hero Denzel Valentine. Valentine hit the game-tying and winning shots in the title game last year and will be in line for some good minutes once again. The former Michigan State standout will be joined by newly-acquired Kris Dunn and rookie Lauri Markkanen (Arizona) when the Bulls take on Dennis Smith Jr. and the Dallas Mavericks.
* Zach Collins, a Bishop Gorman grad who led Gonzaga to the NCAA championship game in April, will make his professional debut against the Utah Jazz. The 7-footer will get help from Jorge Gutierrez, a Findlay Prep product, and Big 10 Player of the Year Caleb Swanigan (Purdue). Nigel Williams-Goss, a Gonzaga and Findlay Prep alum, and first-rounder Donovan Mitchell (Louisville) will lead the Jazz.
* Lonzo Ball (UCLA) and the Los Angeles Lakers will meet Jayson Tatum (Duke) and the Boston Celtics in a highly-anticipated matchup in the Thomas & Mack Center. Gorman grad Roscoe Allen and Jaylen Brown — last year’s No. 3 overall pick — will also play for the Celtics.
