Sellers accumulated 17 points (6-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 26 minutes during Friday's 100-91 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Cavaliers.

Sellers was limited to nine points while going 0-for-9 from beyond the arc his last time out, so it was nice to see him bounce back with a more productive offensive outing. He'll be fighting for minutes in a crowded Bulls backcourt his rookie season, so it could be tough for him to get into the rotation on most nights.

Thomas recorded 24 points (10-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two assists, two rebounds and one steal over 25 minutes in Friday's 100-91 Summer League win over the Bulls.

Thomas helped keep the Cavaliers afloat in the second half, with 15 of his game-high 24 points coming over the final two quarters of Friday's game. The rookie second-rounder has put together some strong performances in the Summer League, but unless he dominates in training camp and the preseason, he'll likely spend most of the 2026-27 season in the G League.

Enaruna (illness) didn't play in Friday's 100-91 Summer League win over the Bulls.

Enaruna missed the Cavaliers' Summer League finale, marking his third consecutive absence due to an illness. However, he is expected to be available for the start of training camp.

Tomlin (rest) didn't play in Friday's 100-91 Summer League win over the Bulls.

Tomlin sat out a third consecutive contest, missing Cleveland's Summer League finale. However, he should be good to go by the time training camp begins.

Atwell logged 22 points (8-10 FG, 6-7 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 27 minutes during Friday's 100-91 Summer League loss to the Cavaliers.

Atwell came out firing after intermission, totaling 13 points and sinking a trio of three-pointers during the third quarter on his way to finishing as the Bulls' leader in points, rebounds and blocks. He joined Chicago in late June on an Exhibit 10 deal, and a strong Summer League could be enough for Atwell to be invited to the Bulls' training camp in September.

Steinbach supplied 22 points (7-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 11 rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes in Friday's 92-90 Summer League loss to the Kings.

Steinbach turned in an efficient performance from the field in Charlotte's Summer League finale, leading all players in scoring. The big man also grabbed a game-high-tying 11 rebounds. He finished Summer League action with back-to-back 20-point double-doubles and will now look toward his rookie campaign with the Hornets. The Washington product could see meaningful run early in his career but will have to compete for minutes with Moussa Diabate and Ryan Kalkbrenner.

Karaban finished Friday's 92-90 Summer League win over Charlotte with 14 points (6-12 FG, 2-8 3Pt), three assists and two rebounds over 35 minutes.

It was a bit of an inconsistent performance from Karaban, who scored seven points in both the first and third quarters but did not score in the other two frames. He still finished tied with Jonathan Mogbo as the Kings' second-leading scorer behind Emanuel Sharp (16 points). The Kings acquired Karaban from the Cavaliers after he was selected by Cleveland with the No. 29 pick of the 2026 NBA Draft, but the UConn product's playing time in his rookie season could be limited if he's behind De'Andre Hunter (eye) and Nique Clifford (rest) on the depth chart after the preseason.

Anderson recorded 18 points (4-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and three steals over 29 minutes during Friday's 92-90 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Kings.

Anderson struggled with his shot throughout Summer League, but he was still able to impact the game through his playmaking. He'll be battling Tre Mann for the backup minutes behind Coby White at training camp, so that's a position battle we'll be monitoring closely leading up to the 2026-27 season.

Young (rest) won't play in Friday's Summer League game against the Pistons, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Young will sit out Miami's Summer League finale after dropping 30 points in Thursday's loss to the Raptors. He scored at least 19 points in three of his four Las Vegas Summer League appearances.

Sharp tallied 16 points (5-12 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists, two rebounds, three steals and one block over 30 minutes during the Kings' 92-90 Summer League win over the Hornets on Friday.

Sharp scored 13 of his team-high 16 points in the first half, with the rookie second-rounder being one of six Kings players to score in double digits in Friday's victory. He also made his mark defensively with three steals, an area of his game that has really stood out so far in the Summer League. Zach LaVine (hand), Malik Monk (personal) and Nique Clifford (rest) are all ahead of Sharp on the Kings' depth chart, but Sharp could earn himself a consistent role in the rotation with a strong summer, training camp and preseason.
