Nate Ament Leads Milwaukee Past Charlotte in Vegas
Milwaukee Bucks forward Nate Ament notched 23 points on 7-for-13 shooting in Wednesday's 110-91 Summer League win over Charlotte, adding six rebounds, two steals, and one assist across 25 minutes. The No. 13 pick had been quiet in Las Vegas to that point, scoring six and seven points in his first two outings, which made the aggression a welcome shift. He hit 2-for-7 from deep but got to the line six times, and Milwaukee's bench produced 43 points in the blowout. Ament arrived via a draft-night trade with Miami, and a Bucks roster in transition should hand him a real runway as a rookie. He averaged 16.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 2.3 assists across 35 starts in his lone season at Tennessee. -
Hugo Gonzalez Fills the Box Score as Celtics Top Kings
Boston Celtics guard Hugo Gonzalez recorded a game-high 24 points on 8-for-18 shooting in Wednesday's 82-76 Summer League win over the Kings, adding 10 rebounds, five assists, and one steal across 33 minutes. The 20-year-old Spaniard led Boston in points, rebounds, and assists while resting just six minutes, connecting on 3-for-9 from deep and 3-for-3 at the line. It's a sharp correction after a 3-for-16 showing in the Vegas opener against Toronto. Boston reportedly declined to include Gonzalez in its trade package for Giannis Antetokounmpo, ESPN's Shams Charania reports, which speaks to how the front office values him. A larger second-year role looks plausible, though his jumper will set the fantasy ceiling. -
Heat Send Ryan Conwell Home From Summer League
Miami Heat guard Ryan Conwell has been sent home from Summer League, with the staff satisfied it had seen enough from the second-round pick, the Sun-Sentinel's Ira Winderman reports. The early exit reads as a vote of confidence rather than a demotion. The former Louisville standout averaged 21 points across three California Classic games and scored 19 in his lone Las Vegas appearance, backing the shooting that made him the ACC leader in made threes as a senior. Miami traded up to No. 37 to get him and has open roster spots but little room under the first apron, so a cheap movement shooter fits the need for backcourt creation around Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Heat are hard-capped at the first apron with several spots left to fill, math that favors a minimum-salaried guard who has already convinced the staff. -
Tucker DeVries Joins Celtics on Non-Guaranteed Deal
The Boston Celtics have signed guard/forward Tucker DeVries to an Exhibit 10 contract, Spotrac's Keith Smith reports. The deal is non-guaranteed, and DeVries joins fellow undrafted rookie Milos Uzan on terms that typically funnel players to a franchise's G League affiliate. A two-time Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year at Drake, DeVries averaged 13.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.1 steals in 34.2 minutes across 32 games last season at Indiana. He's added 11.0 points on 40.0 percent three-point shooting in two Summer League appearances in Las Vegas. Boston can convert an Exhibit 10 into a two-way deal before the season opens, but there's no fantasy angle here unless that conversion comes. -
Milos Uzan Signs Exhibit 10 Deal With the Celtics
Point guard Milos Uzan has signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Boston Celtics, Spotrac's Keith Smith reports. The four-year college guard went undrafted in June despite ranking 57th on ESPN's pre-draft board, and he agreed to terms with Boston that same week. Uzan started all 77 games across two seasons at Houston, averaging 11.3 points, 4.1 assists, and 2.9 rebounds while shooting 41.6 percent from the field and 37.7 percent from three. He has posted 8.0 points, 5.0 assists, and 4.3 rebounds for Boston's Summer League team, alongside former Houston teammate Chris Cenac Jr. Exhibit 10 deals are non-guaranteed camp contracts, and Smith notes most of them end with the player reporting to the club's G League affiliate. Uzan can be ignored in fantasy until that changes. -
Yanic Konan Niederhauser Adds 27 Pounds This Summer
Los Angeles Clippers center Yanic Konan Niederhauser (foot) says he has put on 27 pounds this summer, SI's Joey Linn reports. The 2025 first-rounder also discussed his rehab progress, his fit alongside Keaton Wagler, and an eventual bid for the starting center job. Niederhauser's rookie season ended in March, when a Lisfranc injury in his right foot required surgery, and he underwent a follow-up procedure this offseason. He averaged 4.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 0.7 blocks in 10.3 minutes across 41 games, showing enough burst as a rim-runner to make him worth tracking. Brook Lopez is penciled in ahead of him at 38, so the runway exists. Whether a foot that has needed two procedures holds up under an extra 27 pounds is the question that decides his season. -
Jayden Quaintance to Miss Start of 2026-27 Season After Knee Surgery
San Antonio Spurs forward/center Jayden Quaintance (knee) will miss the start of the 2026-27 season and isn't expected back until some point in 2027, ClutchPoints' Brett Siegel reports. The No. 20 pick underwent successful surgery on his right knee Wednesday to clean up the meniscus, and the team announced no timetable for his return. None of this is a surprise. San Antonio drafted him knowing the procedure was coming after a torn ACL and meniscus at Arizona State in February 2025 left him with four games at Kentucky. Quaintance is off fantasy radars for next season. The developmental runway behind Victor Wembanyama and Luke Kornet now belongs to Tarris Reed Jr., the No. 26 pick, who has it to himself. -
Bez Mbeng is Back in Action on Wednesday
Utah Jazz guard Bez Mbeng (concussion) is back in the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Mbeng exited early during Monday's game due to a concussion. He has cleared concussion protocol and is back in action for Wednesday's contest. Through three games in the Summer League, Mbeng is averaging 5.0 points, 3.3 assists, and 1.3 steals across 12.2 minutes per game. The 24-year-old is hopeful to earn a spot as a rotational player this season. -
Keaton Wagler is Resting on Wednesday
Los Angeles Clippers guard Keaton Wagler (rest) won't suit up for Wednesday's Summer League contest against the Washington Wizards. The Clippers will give the rookie guard a break after he started in each of the first three games of the Summer League. He finished with 16 points, six rebounds, and four assists during Tuesday's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. He has been producing early on, as the Clippers are hopeful he can start alongside Darius Garland this season. His next chance to play will come on Friday versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. -
Hannes Steinbach Registers Double-Double
Charlotte Hornets forward/center Hannes Steinbach put on a show during Wednesday's Summer League contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. He finished with 27 points (13-of-22 FGs), 15 rebounds, and three assists during Wednesday's loss. The Hornets gave Steinbach the keys to the offense, and he delivered during this game. It's only the Summer League, but Steinbach is showing early on that he can be a tremendous asset to the Hornets this season. He could very well force his way into the starting five if he continues to post numbers like these throughout the Summer League. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on the big man this upcoming season. -
Mouhamed Gueye to be Sidelined 3-4 Months
Atlanta Hawks center Mouhamed Gueye (foot) will be sidelined for the next 3-4 months. Gueye recently sustained a fractured left foot during a workout. He underwent surgery on Tuesday and is set to be re-evaluated in 3-4 months. This timetable likely means that Gueye won't be ready for the beginning of next season. Zuby Ejiofor and Henri Veesaar figure to have larger roles with Gueye sidelined. The 23-year-old only averaged minutes in the teens last season, so his absence won't be a huge hit to the Hawks' rotation. -
Jonas Valanciunas Signs Overseas
NBA center Jonas Valanciunas won't be playing in the NBA next season. There were rumors that the big man would head to Europe last season. Instead, Valanciunas signed a two-year deal with the Denver Nuggets. He was recently released by the Nuggets and will now head to the EuroLeague. Valanciunas has signed a two-year deal with Zalgiris Kaunas of the European League. Across his 14-year NBA career, Valanciunas averaged 12.8 points and 9.0 rebounds with six different organizations. He most recently played with the Nuggets, where he averaged 13.4 minutes per game, which was the fewest of his career. If he doesn't return to the NBA, Valanciunas will likely be remembered most for his six-year run with the Toronto Raptors. -
Cameron Carr Notches 23 Points in Lakers' Win Over the Clippers
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cameron Carr notched 23 points on 8-for-18 shooting with three triples, adding two assists, one rebound, and one block in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 99-85 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Clippers. The No. 24 pick has been the story of Los Angeles' summer, and he closed this one with eight straight points to break the game open. He's playing through a right thumb contusion that cost him a game against Dallas last week. The one rebound in 29 minutes is the tell. Carr is a pure scorer right now, and on a Lakers team that runs its offense through Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, a rookie wing earns minutes by defending and rebounding, not by getting shots. The scoring alone won't put him on the floor. -
Bennett Stirtz Leads Thunder With 22 Points in Loss to Denver
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Bennett Stirtz took on a leading role in Tuesday's 106-103 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Nuggets, scoring 22 points on 8-for-16 shooting with six assists, two rebounds, one steal, and one block in 30 minutes. The former Division II standout has been Oklahoma City's steadiest presence through an 0-3 summer, running the offense with the pace that made him a first-team All-Big Ten selection at Iowa, where he averaged 19.8 points and 4.4 assists. The NBA's draft profile likens him to Ty Jerome and flags the same slow adjustment those late-blooming college guards needed before they became rotation pieces, which is the fantasy read as well. -
Aday Mara Tallies 14 Points on Perfect Shooting Against Denver
Oklahoma City Thunder center Aday Mara tallied 14 points on 6-for-6 shooting, seven rebounds, and six assists in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 106-103 Las Vegas Summer League loss to Denver. The Spanish big man was flawless from the floor but shot only 1-for-5 at the line, an issue that follows him from Michigan. The passing is the real story: six assists from a 7-foot-3 center is unusual, and it fits a Thunder offense that runs actions through its bigs. Bennett Stirtz led Oklahoma City with 22 points as the team fell to 0-3. Mara's path to minutes runs through Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein, though, so his rookie fantasy value depends on someone ahead of him missing time. -
Trevon Brazile Erupts for 32 Points in Nuggets' Win Over the Thunder
Denver Nuggets forward Trevon Brazile registered 32 points on 11-for-19 shooting with six threes, six rebounds, one steal, and one block in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 106-103 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Thunder. The No. 35 pick scored 19 before halftime, capping the half by banking in a shot from just inside halfcourt, and he did it days after sitting out a game with a sore shoulder. His college career high was 28, set last season at Arkansas. Denver signed him to a four-year deal with the first two seasons fully guaranteed, so the roster spot is locked in. Breaking into a forward group with Aaron Gordon and Cameron Johnson in it is the harder part. -
Caleb Wilson Posts 19 Points in Bulls' First Summer League Win
Chicago Bulls forward Caleb Wilson finished with 19 points on 7-for-15 shooting, 2-for-6 from three, eight rebounds, three assists, and one block in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 99-87 Las Vegas Summer League win over Washington. The No. 4 pick has scored 19 in back-to-back outings after opening with 35 against Memphis, and he pushed to play the second night of a back-to-back rather than take the standard lottery-pick rest. Jaylin Sellers paced Chicago with 24 points. Wilson has committed 13 turnovers in three games, but seven steals and nine blocks over that stretch point to a two-way profile, and he's expected to hold a prominent rotation role as a rookie. -
Javon Small Scores a Game-High 26 Points in Grizzlies Win
Memphis Grizzlies guard Javon Small scored a game-high 26 points, going 5-for-8 from three, with seven assists, four rebounds, one steal, and two blocks in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 106-85 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Warriors. The 23-year-old was the best player on the floor, controlling the pace and defending at a high level on the second night of a back-to-back. Small appeared in 41 games with 12 starts as a rookie, averaging 9.7 points, 3.7 assists, and 3.1 rebounds after guard injuries opened the door. He's still on a two-way contract. Memphis keeps him around as backcourt insurance, which is the honest read on his fantasy value: he matters in stretches, not across a full season. -
Darius Acuff Jr. Leads All Scorers With 26 Points
Sacramento Kings guard Darius Acuff Jr. produced 26 points on 9-for-18 shooting, 2-for-6 from three, and 4-for-6 at the line, adding five assists, one steal, and one block in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 115-83 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Nets. The former Razorback led all scorers and finally found his stroke after a 4-for-14 clunker in his previous outing. Emanuel Sharp backed him with 23 points, but nobody else on the roster kept pace in a 32-point rout. The one blemish: Acuff committed five turnovers, matching his assist total. Sacramento's veterans will lift some of that creation burden once the season starts, and if he trims the giveaways, the scoring volume makes him one of the more appealing rookies in this class. -
Grant Nelson Out for Rest of Summer League
Brooklyn Nets forward Grant Nelson is out for the remainder of Las Vegas Summer League, ClutchPoints' Erik Slater reports. No reason has been given. The Alabama product came to Vegas competing for a training camp invite or a two-way contract, and losing the rest of the schedule costs him evaluation reps he can't get back. Nelson spent last season with the G League's Long Island Nets, averaging 11.0 points and 6.0 rebounds on 55 percent shooting, and got his first NBA minutes on a 10-day deal in February, appearing in four games. That stint ended when patellar tendinitis shut down his season in March. He isn't a fantasy consideration, but a second straight summer without a roster spot would be a setback. -
Harrison Ingram Becomes an Unrestricted Free Agent
San Antonio Spurs forward Harrison Ingram is now an unrestricted free agent after the team withdrew his qualifying offer, according to Keith Smith of Spotrac. The former North Carolina standout spent his first two seasons on two-way deals, appearing in just 12 NBA games while producing at a high level for the G League's Austin Spurs. He averaged 16.6 points, 12.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 1.2 steals in 34.0 minutes across 40 NBAGL outings last season, shooting 49.2 percent from the field but only 34.0 percent from three. San Antonio can still bring him back, though Ja'Kobi Gillespie, Maliq Brown, and Emanuel Miller currently occupy the team's three two-way slots. Ingram remains off the standard fantasy radar until he secures a standard NBA contract elsewhere. -
Tre Johnson Done for Summer League After One Game
Washington Wizards guard Tre Johnson has been shut down for the remainder of Las Vegas Summer League, along with AJ Dybantsa and Will Riley, The Athletic's Josh Robbins reports. Johnson needed only one appearance to make his case, pouring in 26 points on 11-for-20 shooting with two rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 28 minutes in Thursday's win over the Jazz. The former Texas Longhorn averaged 12.2 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.9 threes in 24.1 minutes as a rookie, though he shot 41.9 percent from the field and faded after the All-Star break amid injuries. His scoring touch was never the issue. Whether Dybantsa's arrival squeezes his role is the question that decides his fantasy value in year two. -
Will Riley to Sit for Rest of Summer League After Scoring Burst
Washington Wizards guard/forward Will Riley will sit for the rest of Summer League, along with AJ Dybantsa and Tre Johnson, according to Josh Robbins of The Athletic. Riley made a strong closing argument Sunday, posting 32 points, six rebounds, three assists, and six three-pointers in 29 minutes against the Sacramento Kings after scoring 18 against the Utah Jazz in the opener. The 2025 No. 21 pick averaged 10.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 2.0 assists as a rookie, and his clean shooting in Vegas should help his case for regular-season minutes. His fantasy value still depends on whether Washington gives him enough wing usage to matter. -
AJ Dybantsa Shut Down for Rest of Summer League
Washington Wizards forward AJ Dybantsa has been shut down for the remainder of Las Vegas Summer League, along with second-year wings Will Riley and Tre Johnson, The Athletic's Josh Robbins reports. The move is precautionary rather than injury-related, following the standard script for a healthy No. 1 pick. The BYU product averaged 25.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in two games, defending well enough to post eight combined steals and blocks. He went 1-for-11 from three, so the jumper stays a question, but the rim pressure and free-throw volume are real. Dybantsa now waits until camp, where he'll compete for touches alongside Trae Young, Anthony Davis, Alexandre Sarr, and Kyshawn George. That's a crowded ladder for a rookie, and the usage split is the thing to watch. -
Ajay Mitchell Reports Progress in Calf Rehab
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ajay Mitchell (calf) says his rehab is nearly complete, telling ESPN's SportsCenter he's "close to being back to 100 percent." The right calf strain cost the Belgian guard the final four games of the Western Conference Finals, a stretch in which the Thunder dropped three of four and lost Game 7 to the Spurs. Mitchell broke out in his second season, averaging 13.6 points, 3.6 assists, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.2 steals on 48.5 percent shooting, and his postseason play (seven starts in 11 games) puts him in position to challenge Luguentz Dort for the starting spot next to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The catch is availability. Mitchell has appeared in roughly 57 percent of Oklahoma City's games across two years, and he's still not cleared in mid-July.
