Players To Watch (And Not Watch)
Warriors
James Wiseman. NOT AT CA CLASSIC. GSW has been very vague about Wiseman’s availability, probably because reality is vague. But he is supposed to play some time during Las Vegas Summer League.
Jonathan Kuminga. PLAYING FOR CONGO NATIONAL TEAM, NOT AT CA CLASSIC. Will he dominate SL, or will he float through SL like he floated through G-League? A couple of crushing games and he might be released from SL duty.
Anthony Slater wrote: Jonathan Kuminga also is expected to appear at some point in summer league, but he just traveled to Congo and the Warriors can’t determine when exactly he will debut until they get him back in the facility and create the preferred summer plan.
You can see him TODAY at
Moses Moody. Last year, he showed off a steady presence in SL that was promising but not assertive.
Patrick Baldwin Jr. NOT AT SUMMER LEAGUE UNTIL CLEARED. 2022 #28 pick. He’s trying to rehab a bad ankle which messed up his senior year, his only year of college and his draft stock. I think he should skip SL. If your foot injury was enough to prevent 100% draft workouts and also screwed up your year in college, you should just get it back to 100% so we can see what we got. Myers left the possibility open if Rick Celebrini approved.
Ryan Rollins. 2022 #44 pick. INJURED, WILL NOT BE AT SUMMER LEAGUE. I hoped to see him in SL with a chip on his shoulder trying to prove he can get to the rim and get off jumpers against SL athleticism. Instead, he will be rehabbing his foot.
Gui Santos. 2022 #55 pick. He’s under contract in Brazil for multiple years, so he will be a draft-and-stash. But there is a remote chance he will come to Summer League, to try to blow people away to get a two-way.
Justinian Jessup. 2020 #51 pick. The legendary late second rounder from last year who has been developing in the Australian NBL. In 2020-21, true diehards dreamed about him coming to save the day whenever a Warrior bricked an open three.
Other young players. Given the GSW roster situation, I doubt anybody can make the NBA roster, but impressive play could get someone on to the Santa Cruz Warriors.
Okay, with this thread overflowing with more than 1K comments, I'm opening a new thread updated with all the GSW free agency news including the Donte news.
Please help move everyone over there. Feel free to use passive-aggression, aggressive-aggression and passive-passivity.

Donte is a 2 time NCAA champ. Bob found us another winner for a great value.
