Kyle Anderson of San Antonio Spurs named summer league MVP
Jul 14, 2015; Las Vegas, NV, United States of America; New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers players run across center court during an National Basteball Association Summer League game at Thomas & Mack Center.
Petteway was 2-of-12 from the field in 26 minutes of play, including 1-of-7 on three-pointers.
Though Blackshear averages 3.5 points and 1.2 rebounds for the Spurs, he didn’t play in Sunday’s 75-68 win over the Hawks, a coach’s decision.
Joining Anderson on the Samsung All-NBA Summer League 2015 Summer League First Team are Seth Curry (New Orleans), Doug McDermott (Chicago), Norman Powell (Toronto), and T.J. “They’re each going to get better and better, not just this season but as their careers go on”. The Spurs previously went 1-2 in the Utah Summer League.
Powell graduated with his degree in history from UCLA in June after having played in all 141 games for the Bruins from 2011-12 through 2014-15.
The defense will be critical if Phoenix is to get a win against San Antonio Monday night. “I couldn’t be more proud of the group”.
“I’ve learned a lot”, Hammon said of her first head coaching experience. “I’ve been through slumps before, but you just have to keep shooting”. We’ve been talking about it all week, how in a short period of time these guys came together and were pulling for each other.
The Hawks took control in the second quarter and fended off a fourth quarter charge to end the Mavericks’ Summer League tournament stint in the quarterfinals. There’s no telling if Anderson will be ready to contribute to the now star-laden Spurs this year, but his play over the past couple of weeks has shown that he’s certainly getting closer to that point.
