I don’t think you need to be signed to play in the summer league. The same way guys off the street are on the squad. It’s up to the player and their agents to play. We did the same thing during NAW and Hayes rookie year when they came right after the trade was finalized and wasn’t under contract at the time.

In 2019, summer league players got paid $1500 + expenses. It might be a little higher now.

At least this year, there's a championship ring for the victors.

FYI, Frank only shot 30% from 3 last season, and the Pistons dumped him and he's now a UFA.

He finished with 23 pts in 20 minutes. He didn't get credit for any steals, but twice while applying double-team pressure, he came up with the loose ball and scored both times on the other end.

Zion won’t be with the boys in Vegas. He’s in Paris at a big streetball tournament sponsored by Nike. It takes place under the Eiffel Tower so that’s cool.

shite, if I had just turned 22 and signed a contract that gives me generational wealth, I would be in Paris too. (although Las Vegas ain’t a bad spot to mark those events either)

He did say he would be in Vegas on the 13th. So that’s good. He just won’t be there the entire time.

He will be at summer league.

He is at that event because it is a Jordan brand obligation. Not just to have fun.

It's something him and Luka are doing.

Other Joordan brand athletes have gone in prior years.

Sharpe is done for Summer League.

MRI showed a small labrial tear in his left shoulder. He’ll be reevaluated in about two weeks.
