He told Utah reporters that he was&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/kslsports.com\/502514\/hendricks-sensabaugh-miss-second-practice\/\">down to 190 pounds<\/a>, his high school weight, after playing his lone season at Baylor around 215 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The results were noticeable in his explosiveness. George was able to get to the hoop to set up teammates, averaging 6.3 assists per game and posting an assist-to-turnover ratio near 3. George also hit 44% of his 3-pointers en route to 21.7 points per game, the most among 2023 draft picks. That accuracy might be hard to sustain for George, who hit 34% from the shorter college line, but he showed why he was projected as a top-10 pick entering college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The same was true of Whitmore, who was widely expected to go in the top 10 before sliding to 20th on draft night. It's impossible to evaluate long-term concerns about Whitmore's knees in this setting, but his game looked top five as he led the Rockets to the title game and was named NBA 2K24 Summer League MVP. Whitmore averaged 19.3 PPG by relentlessly attacking the basket, while his high steal rate (2.5 per game) also carried over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">As compared to those one-and-dones, Tyson's story is totally different. He averaged just 1.8 PPG as a freshman at Clemson before developing into a nightly double-double threat as a fifth-year senior. Drafted by the Nuggets in the second round, Tyson showed potential as a versatile stretch big, knocking down 3.6 3s per game at a 50% clip en route to 20.8 PPG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Most promising rookies:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>1.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/player\/_\/id\/5104157\/victor-wembanyama\">Victor Wembanyama<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/team\/_\/name\/sa\/san-antonio-spurs\">San Antonio Spurs<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>2.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/player\/_\/id\/4683678\/scoot-henderson\">Scoot Henderson<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/team\/_\/name\/por\/portland-trail-blazers\">Portland Trail Blazers<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>3.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/player\/_\/id\/4684740\/amen-thompson\">Amen Thompson<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/team\/_\/name\/hou\/houston-rockets\">Houston Rockets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Wembanyama impresses with 27-point outburst in second summer league game<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Victor Wembanyama drops 27 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks in a loss against the Trail Blazers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">As ESPN's Tim Bontemps has noted, Wembanyama's&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/insider\/story?_slug_=three-takeaways-victor-wembanyama-disappointing-nba-summer-league-debut&amp;id=37976554\">rough debut<\/a>&nbsp;(nine points on 2-of-13 shooting) might have been the best possible thing for him in the long term. The hype about Wembanyama's ability to dominate the NBA as a teenager was an enormous amount of pressure. There will be nights like that when his shot doesn't fall during the regular season, although balanced by efforts like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/insider\/story?_slug_=nba-summer-league-three-takeaways-wembanyama-second-game&amp;id=37987003\">his second game<\/a>&nbsp;in which Wembanyama had 27 points and 12 rebounds to go along with strong rim protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Playing just 21 minutes before a shoulder injury ended his summer, Henderson looked very much like the prospect who was second only to Wembanyama going into last season. He controlled the action, putting up 15 points and six assists in that brief span. Ideally, Henderson would get all the way to the rim more frequently than he did, with just three of his 13 shot attempts coming within five feet. Better floor spacing with the Blazers' full roster around him should help in that regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Going against Henderson, Thompson had 16 points and five assists in 28 minutes before suffering his own injury (an ankle sprain). By contrast to Henderson, Thompson lived in the paint, taking 11 of his 13 shots there. That's more necessary for Thompson, who did hit a 3-pointer but is not known for his outside shooting. I was also impressed with Thompson's defensive activity, which resulted in four blocks and three steals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Slowest-starting rookie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/player\/_\/id\/4683736\/kobe-bufkin\">Kobe Bufkin<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/team\/_\/name\/atl\/atlanta-hawks\">Atlanta Hawks<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Kobe Bufkin's fadeaway wins it for the Hawks<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Kobe Bufkin knocks down a tough fadeaway jumper over Greg Brown III to give the Hawks a one-point lead late in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Bufkin's 4-of-29 shooting from 3-point range (13%) isn't particularly concerning given the small sample. We know Bufkin, who hit 35.5% from the shorter college line, is more accurate than that. Given the keys to the summer Hawks' offense, however, Bufkin also led all players with 4.6 turnovers per game against 3.6 APG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">With&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/player\/_\/id\/3907497\/dejounte-murray\">Dejounte Murray<\/a>&nbsp;signing a contract extension to stick alongside&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/player\/_\/id\/4277905\/trae-young\">Trae Young<\/a>, Atlanta doesn't really need Bufkin to run the offense for extended stretches any time soon, so he can develop as more of a combo guard.

From there, Smith took control, scoring 67 points in 49 minutes over the next game and a half before being shut down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">More exciting than Smith's production was how it came, particularly against the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/team\/_\/name\/det\/detroit-pistons\">Detroit Pistons<\/a>&nbsp;when he had six assists to go with his 38 points &#8212; as many as the No. 3 pick in 2022 had in any game as a rookie. Smith was creating offense off the dribble, something we saw at Auburn but almost never as an NBA rookie. It's worth remembering that Smith didn't turn 20 until May, making him four months younger than rookie teammate Thompson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Holmgren, picked one spot ahead of Smith, is a veteran only in terms of summer league after missing his first NBA campaign because of injury.

Though Curry will not be participating in this year\u2019s FIBA World Cup, he said that Warriors coach Steve Kerr, who is also the head coach of USA Basketball, is already recruiting him for Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-white-background-color has-background has-medium-font-size\">\u201cHe\u2019s already kind of recruiting [me] for next summer,\u201d said Curry of Kerr. \u201cI\u2019m rooting for the guys now who are going to play in the World Cup.

He did win two gold medals for Team USA at previous FIBA World Cups (in 2010 and 2014). But it has been nearly a decade now since Curry has suited up for USA Basketball in any capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-white-background-color has-background has-medium-font-size\">The Warriors are usually competing for championships deep into the year, which explains in part why Curry has been absent from the international game for so long.
