San Antonio Spurs Summer League

Later today in Las Vegas, the San Antonio Spurs and the Portland Trail Blazers will play in the NBA 2K24 Summer League.

With a score of 76-68 against the Charlotte Hornets, the Spurs defeated them in their opening Summer League contest in Las Vegas. However, the Trail Blazers were unable to do so as they fell to the Houston Rockets by a score of 100-99. Jabari Smith Jr.'s game-winning buzzer-beater gave the team a one-point victory.

Wembanyama will want to improve upon his previous performance against a Portland club without Scoot Henderson as San Antonio is the favourite to win this battle.

Over/Under: Under 184.5, according to Draft Kings Network.

Victor Wembanyama and Shaedon Sharpe

Shaedon Sharpe had a good time during Portland's first Summer League game in Las Vegas. Sharpe finished with seven rebounds, 21 points (7-of-21 shooting, including 3-of-9) from beyond the arc.

Wembanyama, meanwhile, finished his first Summer League game with nine points (on 2-of-13 shooting, including 1-of-6) and eight rebounds. He had just played in a finals series back in France, and he appeared exhausted and even rusty.

If Scoot Henderson's premature shoulder injury from the previous game hadn't occurred, the matchup between #1 pick Victor Wembanyama and #3 pick Scoot Henderson would have taken place on Sunday. Henderson had 15 points (5-of-13 shooting, including 1-of-3 from 3-point range) along with 5 assists and 5 rebounds prior to becoming hurt. He won't be participating in today's game.

Victor Wembanyama of the San Antonio Spurs didn't exactly play his best game in his first Summer League contest before facing the Portland Trail Blazers; he had just returned from a finals series in France. The San Antonio Spurs forward gave a post-game interview to the media to discuss the event.

It was unique, Wembanyama said. "Putting on the shirt for the first time was incredibly special. It's a true honour. I'm delighted we won this game overall. There isn't a better method to launch your debut. On the court tonight, to be very honest, I had no idea what I was doing. For the upcoming game, I'm trying to learn.

As he attempts to bounce back against the Portland Trail Blazers to assist his team in securing the victory, his 2-of-13 shooting leaves a lot to be desired.
