Players to Watch:

Lester Quinones is looking good so far and the former Memphis Tiger is out to prove that he deserves to be on an NBA roster. He managed to lead the Warriors with 21 points, three assists, two rebounds and five three-pointers against Charlotte.

Gui Santos was the 55th overall pick in the 2022 NBA draft and this Brazilian player has been consistent in the first two games of the Golden State Warriors. His last outing was a steady 18 points, five rebounds, two assists and a steal but what stands out was his shot selection doing 77.8% in nine shots.

Jalen Hood-Schifino has been a promising rookie and the Los Angeles Lakers look to squeeze out more from the 2023 17th overall pick. His most recent outing against the San Antonio Spurs showed that he can provide some scoring at an efficient rate doing 47.1% in 17 shots. The former Indiana Hoosier finished the game with 20 points, four, assists, three rebounds and one steal.

Max Christie is in his second year with the Los Angeles Lakers and he is looking sharp in the first two games of the NBA Summer League. He led the team against the Spurs in scoring tallying 25 points, four rebounds, four assists, a steal and a block.
