I really hope Boat makes the team but the fact that the Nets already have 3 PG's (Blake, Jack, Williams) scares me.

Williams is supposed to be the stud but is oft injured and his numbers are really sliding. Jarret Jack is what he always was and Steve Blake is the perennial third PG. Nets seem to carry 4 or 5 PGs so Boat has to beat out Darius Norris and/or Markel Brown which shouldn't be too difficult

At least he should get good exposure since the Nets play in both the Orlando and Vegas leagues.

Summer league contracts are important for not only impressing the team that signed the player, but also an opportunity to showcase for the 29 other NBA teams. It'll be a good opportunity for NBA teams to scout Boatright against good competition.
 
I don't really know how summer league contracts work, but does this restrict boat to just signing with the nets after summer league, or can he still sign with anyone?

Boat can sign wherever he wants after summer league is over.
 
Ryan, congratulations to you and your family. See you all in Brooklyn this season!

Is Bazz playing Summer League this year? If so we might get to see a Bazz vs. Boat showdown on Sunday.
 
In an article Boatright's mother said something about a 2-year deal but I've not heard anything about that anywhere else.

"Tanesha Boatright also said her son's deal "wasn't just for summer league" but has a "two-year guarantee."
 
I thought all along it was more than just a a summer deal. On twitter it will say "So and so was invited to play with the ____ for the summer league." In Boatright's case it said that he signed a free agent deal, not just a summer league invite.

Link of the article?

Edit: here is the article, interesting, would have figured a Nets reporter would have spoke on this if this was true

i doubt its a guaranteed contract, he can simply not make the roster. plenty of players ' sign free agent deals' to play on a summer league team, somebody like chasson randle has the same deal w/ gsw. think there would be more info out there on the details of his contract if that wasnt the case, right?

Yea pretty much my same train of thought, this is the time of the year when team beat writers are pumping out articles detailing salary and contract info so fans can get an idea of where their team stands during free agency. If Boat had a 2 year guaranteed deal a bigger deal would have been made out of his signing.
 
BKN just signed Shane Larkin to a 2 year deal. Definitely not a good sign for Boat.
