    EDIT: he's not playing in their last game today.

    I was hoping to watch AJ Griffin during the summer league. The Hawks play their last game today which starts at 12 noon.

    "The Hawks are yet to be able to debut their first-round pick, AJ Griffin. He has been out for the entire Summer League with a day-to-day injury to his foot. For him to get at least one Summer League game in would be amazing for both the player and the team."

    Kenny Lofton Jr had himself quite a game today. 27 points on 10-16 shooting (2-3 3-pointers) and 12 rebounds and 3 assists in 29 minutes.
    He was undrafted in 2022 and plays for the Grizzlies.

    The round mound of rebound redux!

    Dudes got a silky smooth left handed jumper. Kinda reminds me of a hybrid Derrick Coleman/Rodney Rogers

    I don’t like Memphis because of signing and playing Darius Miles just enough to screw Portland’s cap room after the medical retirement. Yes, my sports grudges last a long time.

    However, I can respect that they’ve built a gritty team culture. Kenny Lofton is a nice fit.

    Understandable. I’d rather root against super teams and dynasties like the warriors. Grizz don’t bug me yet but they will if they win a couple rings it will make me bitter.

    I’m a bitter sports fan if teams have too much success because my Blazers haven’t won a championship in my existence and I live and breathe them.

    But I respect the Grizz for now because they’ve built that team organically.

    How is he going to be capable of defending at the next level with being so overweight? Clearly very skilled. Will be interesting to see.

    Somebody took a chance on undrafted John Butler; maybe it should have been us?

    You can't tell me that this didn't mean a lot to this man.

    Does he play center?
    Edit: Yes, they should have. If they could have.

    We are becoming the most dominant (SL) team in the league!
