    Hawks' Jacob Toppin: Fares well in Summer League

    Toppin produced 14 points (3-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds and two turnovers in 27 minutes of Tuesday's 96-82 Summer League win over Memphis.

    Toppin was one of six players in double figures for Atlanta. Toppin is likely to play for Atlanta's G League affiliate in 2026-27.

  • Quinten Post C | MEM

    Grizzlies' Quinten Post: Heading to Memphis

    The Warriors did not match the Grizzlies' three-year, $30 million offer sheet for Post on Tuesday, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Post is now officially a member of the Grizzlies after spending the first two seasons of his career with the Warriors. The big man appeared in 67 regular-season games (35 starts) in 2025-26, averaging 7.7 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 17.3 minutes per contest. While he could carve out a more significant role with the rebuilding Grizzlies, Post will still likely have to compete for playing time with the likes of Isaiah Stewart and Taylor Hendricks behind Zach Edey (ankle).

  • Pelicans' Hunter Dickinson: Re-signs with New Orleans

    Dickinson signed a two-way contract with the Pelicans on Tuesday, Paul Garcia of The Spot Up Shot reports.

    Dickinson was also signed to a two-way deal with the Pelicans last season, during which he averaged 2.4 points in 8.4 minutes per game across just five regular-season appearances. He'll likely continue spending most of his time with the Pelicans' G League affiliate, the Birmingham Squadron, in 2026-27.

  • Aday Mara C | OKC

    Thunder's Aday Mara: Doesn't suit up Tuesday

    Mara (undisclosed) didn't play in Tuesday's 103-69 Salt Lake City Summer League loss to the Jazz.

    Mara logged 23 minutes in Monday's loss to the Hawks, so it's possible he was simply given a rest day on the second leg of this back-to-back set. The big man's next chance to play will come in the Thunder's Las Vegas Summer League opener against the Lakers on Friday.

  • Bennett Stirtz PG | OKC

    Thunder's Bennett Stirtz: Inactive Tuesday

    Stirtz (undisclosed) didn't play in Tuesday's 103-69 Salt Lake City Summer League loss to the Jazz.

    Stirtz logged 29 minutes in the front end of this back-to-back set, so it's possible he was simply given a rest day Tuesday. His next opportunity to suit up will come when the Thunder open the Las Vegas Summer League against the Lakers on Friday.

  • Tamar Bates SG | UTA

    Jazz's Tamar Bates: Doesn't appear in Tuesday's win

    Bates (foot) didn't play in Tuesday's 103-69 Salt Lake City Summer League win over the Thunder.

    Bates didn't see any action in the Salt Lake City Summer League finale while managing left foot soreness. With the action shifting to the Las Vegas Summer League, the Missouri product's next chance to play will come Thursday against the Wizards.

  • Otega Oweh SG | OKC

    Thunder's Otega Oweh: Doesn't play Tuesday

    Oweh didn't play in Tuesday's 103-69 Salt Lake City Summer League loss to the Jazz and was seen with a walking boot on his left leg, Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman reports.

    It's unclear exactly what injury Oweh is dealing with, though he was held out of the second leg of this back-to-back set. His next opportunity to play will come in the Thunder's Las Vegas Summer League opener against the Lakers on Friday.

  • Josh Dix SG | OKC

    Thunder's Josh Dix: Scores 16 points in SL loss

    Dix tallied 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 103-69 Salt Lake City Summer League loss to the Jazz.

    Dix delivered an efficient performance and tied for the game high in points. The 22-year-old wing also matched the game-high mark in triples made. He signed a two-way deal with the Thunder in late June and figures to see most of his playing time with their G League affiliate, the Oklahoma City Blue, in the 2026-27 campaign.

  • Thunder's Brooks Barnhizer: Double-doubles in SL loss

    Barnhizer logged 15 points (5-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 21 minutes in Tuesday's 103-69 Salt Lake City Summer League loss to the Jazz.

    Barnhizer got off to a strong start, scoring 13 points on 4-of-4 shooting from the field in the first half. However, he struggled mightily in the second half, during which he shot just 1-for-8 from the floor. The 24-year-old forward still finished as the Thunder's third-leading scorer and also led the team in rebounds.

  • Hawks' Henri Veesaar: Solid all-around effort in SL win

    Veesaar supplied 11 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 96-82 Salt Lake City Summer League win over the Grizzlies.

    Veesaar did a little bit of everything in the second leg of this back-to-back set, scoring in double figures for the first time this summer. The big man out of North Carolina was one of six Hawks players to post double-digit points, and he also chipped in on the defensive end with a steal and a block. He figures to provide center depth in his rookie campaign, as he's buried behind Onyeka Okongwu, Jock Landale (ankle), Mouhamed Gueye and fellow rookie Zuby Ejiofor (rest).
