Suns Summer League, Las Vegas, July 10th- 20th, 2025

[Mainstreet]

I wasn't sure if it is ESPN or ESPN+. I don't have plus.

It looks like I will only be able to watch the Suns first summer league game on ESPN.

I was thinking the other game was on ESPN2, but it appears not. That's a downer.

Well, there's always Youtube later on.

That's what I'm thinking, but it's still not the same as live.

ESPN tomorrow, NBA TV Sunday and Wednesday, and ESPNU on Monday. Luckily, I get all those on YouTube TV.

As Dikembe Mutombo might have said with a finger wag.

No, no, no. Not in my house.

15 Players to watch in Summer League, from NBA.COM:

7. Rasheer Fleming, Phoenix Suns​

The Suns acquired No. 31 pick Fleming in a trade with the Wolves. Fleming is a versatile player who shows upside as a catch-and-shoot player while also being a defensive stopper. He is capable of becoming a lob finisher with his athleticism and a threat in ball screens. Defensively, he can serve as weak-side help while guarding multiple positions.

12. Khaman Maluach, Phoenix Suns​

Standing at 7-foot-2, the No. 10 pick shows tremendous upside as a premier shot blocker in the NBA. Maluach’s size and length help shrink the floor for offenses. The big man shows glass-cleaning abilities, aggressive rebounding and catching lob passes.

 

[Mainstreet]

I like to hear Ryan Dunn say the Suns can play aggressive defense because they have Khaman behind them.

I could listen to Dunn hype Maluach all day but I'm waiting on Oso to start bashing Khaman like a scorned lover. Dunn is hyping his replacement. Oso needs to get his shot working to regain Dunn's attention.

Match made in heaven.

I'd like to see some competition there, but Oso's minutes might have to come at power forward?

"He is trying to get every blocked shot, every rebound. He just plays with a high motor every day."

Music. Sweet music.

Oso can't play in this league without a jump shot. And that jump shot is just not fixable. So, Oso cannot play in this league. I would send him to G-league until he can at least have a form that does not make people cringe. But I know that if that is the expectation for him to come back, he is not coming back.

The kid has played high school and college ball and a year in the NBA. If he does not have reasonable form on a jumper now, I just don't think he will ever have one.

Yeah, we had one just last season with Mason Plumlee. Oso can find a niche in the NBA without one, but he'll never be more than a 3rd stringer without more NBA level skills other than passing.

I view Oso as a more athletic version of Alvin Adams without the outside shot. If he can extend his shot to about 12 feet, so much the better.

Like Adams, he has an excellent all around game, including good passing skills and a high basketball IQ.

IMO, there is always room on a 15-man roster for such a player.

Plum is a big guy who used to be something. He’s washed now and probably better than Oso still.

Oso shouldn’t sniff the floor this season for a regular nba team.

 

[Hoop Head]

Oso should spend most of the year in the G-League.

It sounds like AzFamily will be televising a couple of the Suns games on Sunday and Wednesday.

The Suns are getting ready to enter the court.

 

[Mainstreet]

With last season being such a downer, I can't remember being this excited for summer league in a long time.

Lots of new faces.

 

[Mainstreet]

Kolby Brea nails a good-looking corner three.

 

[Mainstreet]

Khaman hits a short shot that hit a lot of rim before going down.

He has 2 turnovers and a little shaky with his handle early.

Now a 3rd turnover trying to post up.

 

[Folster]

Dunn and Brea are looking good to start.

 

[Mainstreet]

Oh my, Oso with a thunderous dunk.
