Vegas Summer League Players To Watch/Discussion

Like I said, that awesome writer did it again, despite having a lot more teams, so his article is a little more limited.
Since we've hit a little bit of a dry spell in Free Agency, it's good to get an in-depth look at the Vegas Summer League just in time for the start tomorrow (Friday)
There's a lot of better players to watch this go around compared to the few in Orlando. Don't believe me? Just take a look:

Who are the Top 10 players you want to watch in the coming weeks?

Interested to see Portland.
3/5 of the projected second unit will be in Vegas (Barton, McCollum and T Rob).
Barton looked a lot better last year but they really need a step forward from McCollum, T Rob and Meyers Leonard to go along with Kaman and Blake.

Yeah some teams, like Portland, had to get four because I just couldn't limit it to only three. Some teams even have more, I just didn't want to list everyone.
Heck, Portland also even has Allen Crabbe, Craig Brackins, Joel Freeland and Rodney Carney

I have little to no faith in Leonard, but I think the other three will become nice pieces in the next year or so as they learn their roles. McCollum is especially good in summer league type settings.
Yeah, Freeland was playing well before he got hurt last year, but Kaman likely took his spot in the rotation. Crabbe should be interesting. Everybody else is pretty much auditioning for a spot on another team because Portland doesn't have any spots.

Excited to see Johnny O'Bryant on the court again. Hopefully, he can make some noise.
ETA: Damn the Vegas league is much better.

I know the field is larger to choose from, but there's some teams I have no interest in that I will be watching.
Wish Noel doubled up and played in Vegas too

Not to get sidetracked but

I'm really excited about Nick Johnson for the Rockets after watching him in Orlando. Could be a solid role player that backs up at the 1 & 2

I'll be watching as many Kings games as possible Stauskas is a blast to watch.

I thought he was. (I haven't read the article yet)
He does have one more game tomorrow. Philly & Memphis play in the Orlando Summer league championship around 11 or 12.

I guess because he has that game and I don't think they want to rush anything with him.
Also, I'll pose this question to get some more discussion:
Who are the Top 10 players you want to watch in the coming weeks?

Okay I wasn't sure because I made "SEC players in the Summer League" thread on the SEC rant and he was listed on both rosters. Hopefully he still plays a game or two there.
I can't wait to watch Julius Randle, Wiggins, and Jabari.
I think Wiggins and Jabari actually play each other tomorrow.

Julius Randle - I'm ready to see him show off more of his range and shooting touch
Jabari Parker: Obvious reasons; Do want to watch him defensively
Wiggins: Obvious reasons
McDermott: I want to see how he looks defensively and how well he is able to score against better competition
The Greek Freak: Fun young talent w/loads of potential
Nik Stuaskas: Looked great against NBA level talent against Kentucky in the tourney. I didn't get to see him much in college.
Kyle Anderson: Him as a Spur is a perfect match. Another guy I want to see play defense.
Bruno Coboclo: Who wouldn't want to watch the Brazilian Durant
Dante Exum: Only have seen youtube videos of the guy play.
And Noel if he decides to play
