To begin with, Kings 1* is just not a typo. The Kings are fielding two groups for the California Traditional Summer season League, tonight’s opponent for the Spurs is the staff that beat the Chinese language Nationwide Workforce 101-50 final evening in Sacramento. The Kings 2 staff was additionally in motion at present, dropping to the Miami Warmth 102-86 in San Francisco, CA. A little bit of trivia, if you happen to’re trying on the scoreboard on the NBA web site, SKO is Kings 1 and SKT is Kings 2. So far as I can inform, the 2 Kings summer season league squads will likely be mixed for Las Vegas Summer season League, which ought to give them a superb shot at profitable that coveted Summer season League Championship Trophy.
The Spurs Summer season League is coming off a 32 level loss to the Charlotte Hornets, who had a number of gamers with in depth NBA enjoying expertise. The one participant with a superb efficiency on the Spurs squad final evening was Stephon Fortress, who one way or the other managed a optimistic +/- in a 30 level loss. Neither Fortress nor Sidy Cissoko are anticipated to play tonight on the second recreation of a summer season back-to-back, so if you happen to solely like to look at video games the place the Spurs are profitable, you would possibly need to skip this one. We’re going to be principally watching guys who need to land jobs … someplace … however not with the Spurs, who aren’t anticipated to have any open roster spots after they end incorporating their new gamers into the squad. However I might anticipate guys like Jameer Nelson Jr. to play arduous for the scouts on the area to see his recreation and discover him a long term job that the 2 weeks of summer season leagues.
For those who’re a basketball junkie, tonight’s recreation is for you. Let’s watch a bunch of fellows attempt to show that they’ll play skilled basketball at a excessive degree. I’m trying ahead to seeing Drew Timme, who’s on the Kings 1 squad.
Recreation Prediction:
Yauhen Massalski will play his finest recreation as a professional, and nearly no person will discover.
One last phrase:
Go Spurs GOOOOOO!!
