After many days of exciting and fierce competition, the NBA Summer League is also coming to an end, although the final showdown has not yet been decided, but the official announcement of the awards earlier, the best team and the ownership of the MVP list have the results, but after the awards were announced, a few happy and a few worried, and some players proved themselves unexpectedly. The Summer League Awards are officially announced! 3 winners and 2 losers were born, the Rockets and Clippers found treasures, and the MVP was controversial.
Let's take a look at the final award first, the best team is: GG Jackson, Jordan Miller, Scottie Pippen Jr., Shepard, Krell Weir. The best second team is: Carrington, Klingen, Jaime Hakes Jr., Jareth Walker, Jalen Wilson. The MVP was won by Nets player Jalen Wilson, which was somewhat unexpected after all, he was only on the second team.
Winner one: Rockets. The best team was led by rookie Shepard, who was left out of the top three picks in the league and was arguably the most consistent and outstanding of the top three picks in the league this season. Shepard played in four games in the Summer League, averaging 20 points, 5.3 assists, 4.8 rebounds, 2.8 steals and 1.3 blocks per game while shooting 50 percent from the field. The performance on both offensive and defensive ends is quite good, the key is to have three points from the outside, and the average points per game ranks second on the scoring list in the summer league. It has to be said that the Rockets' draft has found a treasure for them, Shepperd will become an important part of the team's lineup in the new season, and it is not surprising that he will be the core of the Rockets' backcourt in the future, and the future of the Rockets with enough talented young players is worth looking forward to.
Winner two: Clippers. Jordan Miller averaged 25.4 points per game in five games in Summer League, shooting 55 percent from the field and 60 percent from three-point range. It is worth mentioning that as the No. 48 pick in 23 years, he showed an excellent performance in the summer league. Especially in the semifinals, he shot 8-of-14 from 3-point range and got 28 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists, two steals and one block. It can be said that the Clippers have found a treasure, I don't know if such a performance can win him a place in the team, after all, the current Clippers still need to impact the results in the new season, and whether they will have other adjustments in the follow-up Let's wait and see.
Winner three: Jaylen Wilson. In the end, Jalen Wilson won the MVP, and he was also selected to the All-NBA Second Team, which was somewhat embarrassing. He played five games in the summer league and averaged 21.8 points and 4.6 rebounds per game while shooting 55 percent from three-point range. The team's record was not ideal, and they did not make it to the Final Four, but he did win two accolades, which made his accolades somewhat far-fetched, and of course Booker denied his outstanding performance.
Loser One: Eagles. As the top pick, Risachet's performance was not ideal, he averaged 14.5 points, 5 rebounds and two assists per game throughout the summer league, shooting only 39.3% from the field and 25% from three-point range.
Loser two: Wizards. The Wizards' selection of Sarr also didn't live up to their expectations, averaging just 5.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 3.3 rebounds per game throughout the summer league, shooting 19.1 percent from the field and 11.8 percent from three-point range. The three shooting percentages were 80.9%, and there was an embarrassing performance of 0-of-15 shooting in the game. While Sarr played more minutes in the Summer League than he did in the NBL, he scored and shot less. The likelihood of Saarwater is not low.
The performance of the two players, as the champion and the top eye, in the summer league obviously did not live up to expectations, so they did not make it to the best team. Do you think these two players will be in the water in the future? Who among the rookies will be the fastest to become the core of the team in the new season?
