    Kid's a winner. On the court and in the game of life.

    So much pressure because people think that he is only there because of his dad....

    It’s his first summer league game. Our coaches never do shooters any favors. We’re allergic to multi screen sets.

    This isn't the Lakers first game. It's their first game in Vegas. They played in that other classic.

    So 2nd year for Cam: still has no idea how to play bball.

    Reed knows how to play. That's why one is a #3 pick and the other a 20th.

    In fairness, that is the only reason he's there.

    Sheppard looks like a PG trying to play PG. He has a 3 you have to respect. Can dribble and make smart passes. It doesn't need to be flashy. Frankly, he's exactly what the Rockets need. It will free Amen up to be more of a slashing SG/SF which is what he is more suited for until he develops a jumpshot.

    IDK about the rest of you, but I am not taking anything from summer league too seriously. This is pre-pre-season.

    Would be a way cooler story if he didn't have a mum. Lebron just found him in the forest or something and moulded him into a mediocre player

    I want to say that the Lakers already played in the California - Sacramento Summer League.

    I am wildly overreacting to every possession. It's the only way to live

    In all seriousness Reed will be fine. If he looks good playing with all these scrubs who don’t pass or run plays properly, he’s going to look great with Sengun and Amen on the court.

    Well, I guess he’s a bust. That didn’t take long.
