NBA Summer League 2023

Chet Holmgren is about to debut, again. Also, Sam Hauser’s brother is playing on the Pacers SL team.

Nice drive Chet.

Follows it up with an impressive blocked dunk.

[Who]

Jeez. That is impressive by Holmgren. The driving, the body control, the finish.

Jeez. That is impressive by Holmgren. The driving, the body control, the finish.

You can tell Chet is a high IQ player. Very patient on offense. He’s fun to watch.

In the other game, Miller really turned it on in the second half for Charlotte. He’s got a nice shooting stroke, good handle too.

How’s Samanic doing? I was a fan when we had him last year. Now we have Azubuike who may be more NBA ready than Luka. Feels like we just swapped projects with Utah.

Another denial on the driving dunk by Chet.

Not great thus far. 3-14 from the field. Games on ESPN if you’re interested. Looks like they are carrying most of them.

[Who]

O Dieng trying to play like a 6-6 SG. He isn't quick enough to pull it off at 6-10. Not creating enough separation. Looks limited. Needs to use his size better.

[Who]

Another block after the whistle by Chet. That guy's length around the basket is impressive.

[Who]

Holmgren keeps reminding me of Bargnani and Kukoc. Not because of his game. Just his size. The 7 foot thin white guy and he wears the #7 like they did.

Chet looks like Kukoc at times with those long arms. All limbs. Arms and legs. Going everywhere. He felt like Kukoc on some of those drives too with his misdirection, patience and ball fakes.

God, Bargnani wishes he could jump and block shots like Chet. Another block for Chet. He is controlling the basket defensively. Chet reminds of Bargnani when he is hanging out on the perimeter despite being 7-1.

Another block after the whistle by Chet. That guy's length around the basket is impressive.

He’s a good athlete. Quick leaper and has decent lateral quickness. Dribbles like a guard.

Thanks for the heads up and TP.

The guy is going to be one heck of a player. Those Marcus Camby comparisons on defense are accurate. Marcus Camby who can handle the ball like a guard, drive, pass, score. One heck of a player.

Jaime Jaquez 22pts

His first match up with Wemby would surely be a must watch event.
