The 2016 NBA Summer League is over, and we’re all back home after spending some time in Las Vegas. What did we learn? Some topics:
- Who was the best rookie? Best player?
- Did Ben Simmons show enough to make us think that he’s on the path to stardom? What about Brandon Ingram?
- Who was the best player that wasn’t drafted?
- How concerned should we be about Buddy Hield’s rough performance for the Pelicans? We disagree on this question.
- Mike also discusses his Thon Maker piece in more depth. Did the Bucks really get a steal with the No. 10 pick?
We also share some PG-rated stories from Vegas, and Mike formally apologizes for a botched introduction. A note: this was recorded before the thrilling Bulls-Timberwolves finale.
