    Walker certainly should play, I'm not even 100% sure it's a good move to pickup his contract. I 99% think they will do it, but he hasn't proved anything at the NBA level and was the 57th pick.

    Sharpe I'm fine with either way, if he only wants to practice with the team, only do individual workouts, or actually play summer league games let him do what he believes is best.

    Walker > Watford
    Sharpe needs Experience, period, but Experience with Scoot is invaluable.

    That's ridiculous. He's easily our second-best rebounder, and it's not close. This is going to be a big year for Walker, JUST YOU WATCH

    Just bought my tickets for the 13th. I just hope Scoot is still playing since that is their 3rd or 4th game I believe.

    Blazers Extend Offers to Butler, Badji, not to Knox

    So, I assume Butler and Badji will be playing in summer league.

    What is the parking situation is at the Thomas & Mack center?
    Looks like there are several lots. I haven't seen anywhere to buy parking in advance like you can with ParkWhiz.

    Free parking.
    If you want to park 8 rows closer, you can pay a fee - but not needed

    A little surprised. We tend to pull out guys who we feel have performed well enough.

    Kinda crazy that Keon is only in his third(?) year. It feels like he's older than that :lol:

    For the guys we don't know:

    Nate Williams -> This is Jeenathan Williams (LOL)
    Jaizec Lottie -> 6'-2" Guard
    Michael Devoe -> 6'-5" Guard
    Antoine Davis -> 6'-1" Guard
    Justin Minaya -> 6-7" Forward
    Malachi Smith -> 6'-4" Guard
    Duop Reath -> 6-11 Center
    Christ Koumadje -> 7-4 Center

    This roster (like the varsity team) is really lacking in good forwards.

    No clue how the summer league benefits Sharpe but alright.

    Hope he doesn't get injured... again.

    Gonna be a lot of sportscenter highlights I'm sure

    its ok, shaedon sharpe's length measurements indicate he can play power forward and maybe even small ball center, so no worries, because where the top of his head is at doesn't matter

    Sorry to repeat myself but he looked so much better when he was only playing SG. He looked horrible at PG but was progressing nicely on O and D when he wasn't worried about running the team. Another high flyer I look forward to seeing in SL
