    1. RANDY FOYE, G, MINNESOTA

    Foye took league MVP honors at the Vegas Summer League, averaging 24.8 points on .530 shooting in five games, while bringing tears to the eyes of Minnesota homer and NBA TV's Rick Kamla. Foye was virtually unstoppable, showing "star-like quality" according to ESPN.com's Brian Windhorst and getting to the hole whenever he wanted.[​IMG]

    It is a summer league award, nothing to jump for joy for. However its better than being awarded with the worst player or not even being noticed in the league at all.

    That is basically what I was saying. Better to have positive things to build a team on, rather than negative (cough Eddie Griffen).

    I don't know. I think Roy put up more impressive numbers (you have to adjust for minutes played). Also, in the one game they started Roy at SG, he scored 35 points. In all the other games, he was the PG.

    I will say that Foye performed far better than I expected. I didn't think he'd be a ROY candidate, but it looks like I was probably wrong.

    i heard that for a fact they messed up foye's assist, steals, and turnover numbers.

    Maybe. But they could have messed up Roy's as well. Stats in summer league are very unreliable.

    ^^I was thinking the same thing, but from what i heard, Foye was dominant, and scored at will whenever he wanted especially in the fourth quarter. Plus i think the wolves did better than portland didnt they?
