  • Trey Alexander SG | UTA

    Jazz's Trey Alexander: Exits Summer League win early

    Alexander was taken off the court on a stretcher after sustaining an apparent injury to his left side in the fourth quarter of Monday's 80-63 Summer League win over the Bulls, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.

    Alexander was seen moving around a bit on the stretcher, though he repeatedly grabbed at his left side and appeared to be in significant pain as he was taken off the floor. His next opportunity to suit up will come Wednesday against the Spurs.

  • Timberwolves' Trey Kaufman-Renn: Available to play

    Kaufman-Renn (mouth) is available for Monday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Trail Blazers.

    Kaufman-Renn exited Saturday's Summer League loss to the Nuggets after taking a shot to the mouth, but he's back for Monday's game. Kaufman-Renn is hoping to earn a training camp invite to Minnesota with some strong play at Summer League.

  • Timberwolves' Joan Beringer: Remains out Monday

    Beringer (back) won't play in Monday's Summer League game against the Trail Blazers.

    Beringer will miss a second consecutive contest due to back tightness. The 19-year-old center's next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Pacers.

  • Ryan Nembhard PG | DEN

    Mavericks' Ryan Nembhard: Considered day-to-day

    Nembhard (illness) did not play in Monday's 96-88 Summer League win over Memphis and is considered day-to-day, NBA contributor Ron Harrod Jr. reports.

    Nembhard played relatively well in his two appearances of the Las Vegas Summer League, combining for 27 points, five rebounds, 16 assists, two steals and one block. He's been under the weather, so his next opportunity to get back on the floor will come Thursday versus Oklahoma City. For now, Nembhard should be considered at least questionable to suit up for that contest.

  • Mavericks' Morez Johnson: Doesn't play Monday

    Johnson (illness) didn't play in Monday's 96-88 Summer League win over the Grizzlies but can be considered day-to-day moving forward, Ron Harrod Jr. of DLLS Sports reports.

    Johnson is under the weather and was unable to suit up Monday after totaling 37 points, 13 rebounds, six blocks, five steals and three assists in Dallas' first two Las Vegas Summer League outings. His next chance to play will come against the Thunder on Thursday.

  • Bez Mbeng SG | MIA

    Jazz's Bez Mbeng: Won't return Monday

    Mbeng is in the league's concussion protocol and won't return to Monday's Summer League game against the Bulls. He'll finish with three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 FT) and one assist in five minutes.

    Mbeng exited Monday's contest with 5:07 remaining in the opening quarter and will not check back in. His next opportunity to play will come Wednesday against the Spurs.

  • CJ Huntley PF | PHO

    Suns' CJ Huntley: Won't play Monday

    Huntley has been ruled out for Monday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Bucks due to a hamstring injury, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

    The severity of Huntley's hamstring injury isn't yet clear, but expect Phoenix to play it safe during these exhibition games. His next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Pistons.

  • Jahmir Young PG | MIA

    Heat's Jahmir Young: Adds 12 points in SL loss

    Young notched 12 points (4-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals across 28 minutes in Monday's 90-73 Summer League loss to the Cavaliers.

    Young struggled mightily from beyond the arc Monday, though he still finished as Miami's second-leading scorer. He also led the team in steals, matching the game-high mark. The 25-year-old point guard has chipped in at least 12 points and two steals in all three of his Las Vegas Summer League appearances thus far.

  • Cavaliers' Jaxson Robinson: Scores 13 points with two steals

    Robinson recorded 13 points (4-13 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, one assist and two steals over 24 minutes during Monday's 90-73 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Heat.

    Through three Summer League games, Robinson has ripped away a total of five steals. He did a nice job of picking his spots in the offense during Monday's win and recorded his first double-digit scoring game in Las Vegas.

  • Meleek Thomas PG | CLE

    Cavaliers' Meleek Thomas: Drops 35 points in SL win

    Thomas tallied 35 points (14-23 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block across 30 minutes in Monday's 90-73 Summer League win over the Heat.

    Thomas put on a show Monday, delivering an extremely efficient performance and knocking down a game-high five triples en route to a game-best 35 points. The rookie second-rounder also tied for the game high in steals and was one of three Cavaliers players to record at least three combined steals-plus-blocks. Thomas has reached the 20-point mark in all three of his Las Vegas Summer League games thus far, and he has dropped 30-plus points in back-to-back outings.
