    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Pistons' summer league team, which competes in Las Vegas beginning Saturday, will feature first-round picks Rodney Stuckey and Arron Afflalo , as well as Cheikh Samb , the 7-foot-1 Senegalese center the Pistons acquired from the Lakers last year.

    Current Pistons Jason Maxiell and Amir Johnson also are on the roster, but it is not clear how much they will play.

    Sammy Mejia , the point guard from DePaul drafted with the 57th pick, also will play.

    There are two nonroster veterans on the team -- LaRonProfit , the former Wizards guard who has four years experience, and point guard Walker Russell Jr ., son of former Pistons standout Walker D. Russell. Walker Russell Jr. played in the NBDL last season.

    The Pistons, coached by Terry Porter , will play five games (76ers, Grizzlies, Wizards, Nuggets and Lakers).</div>

    I hope Amir plays a fair bit. I love watching players tear it up in summer league, like Louis Williams of the sixers!!!

    I'm most interested to see how Samb plays. Would like to see him crack the roster next season (which is highly doubtful)
