NBA Summer League 2026

Aside from Hugo, Amari, and our two rookies, I?m excited to see how Chauncey Wiggins performs for the Celtics. A big man with a nice looking three pointer is intriguing specially in Joe?s system. Maybe he could get one of our two way slots.

I just like that he was clearly given his name by NBA2K.

That definitely deserves some TPs

I'm curious to see if Amari grew like I saw some people talking about.

Haha, thanks!

For the summer league roster, Cenac and Hugo are already on the team, so they don't have anything to prove.  Cenac probably wants to establish himself to some degree, but if he doesn't, it won't really change anything.

Dillon Mitchell and some of the others are trying to show enough that they get invited to camp and then maybe get a 2-way, with BOS or someone.  But you don't really expect all that much from these guys.

It is Amari Williams that needs to start showing something.  I know it is tough for Bigs in the summer league but he should be able to show that he belongs at least.  Be in the game, not looking lost (which seemed to happen a lot last season).  He was kind of demoted, but he has a 2-way slot for now.  He is already 24.

Peterson vs Dybansta tonight at 9pm. Curious to see how AJ looks.

Bobby Krivitsky: The Celtics have officially announced the signing of Amari Williams to a two-way deal. And while there has been talk about a growth spurt this offseason, they still list him as 7'0" tall.

So Fears and Queen are both not playing in summer league for the Pelicans. Thats too bad. Guess the organization doesn?t think they need it

A growth spurt at 24?  That would be exceptionally unusual.  Is he joking?

It was one of those fake, easily debunkable click bait posts on social media.

Actually, there might be some truth to it.  He measured at 6-11 in the draft process last year, and was listed as that last year in Maine, while he is now officially listed as 7 feet.  Not sure he is 7-2, as the rumors say, but his height was raised, which is pretty unusual.

AJ certainly likes to get downhill. Very aggressive.

He listed at 7 foot now, so he has grown at least one inch.   He is 24, he should not be growing that much at that age, if at all.

It could be that he measured 6'-11.25" last season (rounded to 6'-11") and this year he measure 6'-11.75" and they rounded that up to 7'-0".  If he grew 0.5" or more, I'll take it but more likely, he just had better posture or more hair or something.

Most likely correct.  Even last year on draft night some were listing him at 7 feet, which is what he was listed at Kentucky.  That said, having seen him very up close in Maine (got to interact with him briefly before a game) I can attest that he is very large.  Like noticeably bigger than other pro-basketball players large, so I guess some part of me wants to believe he did grow.
