Always love spending time at Summer League. It’s so fun getting to know new players, seeing the SL “vets” grow up and in the case of the Grizzlies this year, getting a small glimpse of new HC Tuomas Iisalo’s vision. Look forward to seeing what the team does in Vegas! 💙

Ja Morant on this season:
“It was lot. Injuries are frustrating. Losing games is frustrating. I try to find the positive - we showed signs of what we can be & that’s what I took from this season. Trying to make sure the stuff we did right we continue to do consistently.”
