Ok 22 and 8 for Knox. I didn't like the pick but I like those numbers for his first summer league game.

Looks like the Knicks had a heck of a draft. Knox has hall of fame level talent and Robinson could be a great defender/board guy.
The first drive and dunk by Knox in this video is filthy. Only 18 years old!

He looked really good, but let's not get carried away now...

Hassan Martin who was A10 DPoY under Hurley at URI in 2017 has been looking good for the Celtics. Was at the end of the bench for 3 quarters in their first game then scored 8 points and grabbed 3 boards in 3 minutes. Had a monster jam last night along with another solid night. Would not be surprised if he were a two-way player for them this year.

If Daniel Hamilton puts in the work on his game and body he can definitely play and contribute in the NBA. Purvis maybe as a defender or change of pace/heat check bench guy. The others I don't see any realistic chance or NBA skillsets.

Brimah had 9 and 9 in just 16 minutes last night --- also 7 fouls (you get 10 in summer league). When he's gotten the minutes, he's produced.
Larrier got another DNP and has now played fewer minutes in Vegas (2) than Cassell (5).
Speaking of which, Cassell is the only former Husky in action today. Updated stats through 7/10 below:

Amida is the best out of our summer league crew.
Amida is an NBA level talent. Spurs would be stupid not to call him up this year. They have Costello, Bertans, and Lauvergne on their roster as big men. I would not take any of those guys over Brimah.
PS: Brimah has Clint Capella upside. You can't teach Amida's length, height, athleticism, and defensive potential.

He had 7 fouls in 16 minutes against bench players on teams where there are basically 0-2 NBA starters per team to begin with.

Not a huge NBA fan, but have a soft spot for the local Knicks and man, have the two picks played well:
Knox: 23.3 ppg, 7.3 rpg, 2 apg, 1.3 spg
Robinson: 11.3 ppg, 9.0 rpg, 3 bpg
Allonzo Trier impressed too: 17 ppg, 6 rpg, 3 apg, 1.7 spg
Knox: 23.3 ppg, 7.3 rpg, 2 apg, 1.3 spg
Robinson: 11.3 ppg, 9.0 rpg, 3 bpg
Allonzo Trier impressed too: 17 ppg, 6 rpg, 3 apg, 1.7 spg

Trier was abhorrently bad the first two games but took the blinders off last night and realized he does in fact have teammates he can pass the ball to.
Knox was a steal. The kid passes the eye test with flying colors, just like Tatum and Mitchell did last summer. I'd be surprised if he didn't lead rookies in scoring given that Porzingis will miss most, if not all, of the upcoming season. Maybe Trae Young will out-volume him and score more. I don't see any of the big men scoring more than those two.
Robinson is so exciting. The kid's motor is unreal for a guy his size and he hasn't played in a year and is out of shape. He blocks shots with his left and right hand and has great timing/instincts on D. I like the Capela/Camby comps for him.
This sequence is absurd for an out of shape rookie who didn't play college ball...
Hard hedge on the left wing, dive to help at the rim, and still close out to the opposite corner to block a 3PA. That is special stuff.

Larrier left the Grizzlies a few days ago and joined the Mavericks (they're down 4 starters). Played 9 minutes on Wednesday and went 1-2 (now shooting 3-16 for the summer). He plays his last summer league game today.
Brimah got 23 minutes last night and posted 8 boards, 6 blocks, and only 2 fouls.
Hamilton had 11 boards and 8 assists.

Good numbers for Hamilton. Get him to a good system and coaching & unlock that potential. I don't think OKC is that, but certainly he's turning enough heads to get an invite this fall.
The Brimah - Capella comp is amusing, but I'd rather see Amidah get meaningful burn in Europe where he could play regularly and contribute his enthusiasm to a team. Sure the NBA money is far better, but its not everything.

how about just putting him at the FT line instead of the dude they had there who acted like the ball was on fire.

Brimah started alongside Blossomgame last night and responded. Purvis led the Magic with 20 points in 26 minutes.
Larrier played what was I believe his final game of summer and went 0-1, finishing 3-17 from the field between Utah and Vegas. Hope he finds his feet wherever he lands next.

Summer League's over for UConn guys -- final averages:
Of note:
| NAME | GP | MPG | PTS | REB | AST |
| AMIDAH BRIMAH (SPURS) | 8 | 14.375 | 4.875 | 5.25 | 0.125 |
| SAM CASSELL JR (WIZARDS) | 3 | 5 | 1.6666666667 | 0.6666666667 | 0 |
| DANIEL HAMILTON (THUNDER) | 5 | 24.8 | 7.8 | 8 | 6.6 |
| TERRY LARRIER (GRIZZLIES/MAVS) | 6 | 7 | 1.3333333333 | 1.1666666667 | 0.3333333333 |
| RODNEY PURVIS (MAGIC) | 5 | 19.25 | 5 | 2.4 | 1 |
Of note:
- Larrier got a lot of burn in his first game and hardly ever after that (to the point that he switched teams). Memphis wasn't investing. He and Cassell showed very little in the summer league.
- Brimah played well when he was given time -- hope he gets a camp invite.
- Hamilton was a two-way player last year for OKC and will hopefully carve out a full-time NBA role this year. He led the summer Huskies in PPG, RPG, and APG.
- Purvis was up with Orlando from March on last year and is on a non-guarantee this year. He should break camp with someone -- he was inconsistent this summer but solid in his last game.
