The NBA recently announced the top performers at this year's NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, headlined by Summer League MVP Cam Whitmore of the Houston Rockets.
Whitmore was widely projected to be a top-10 pick entering the 2023 NBA Draft, but he ultimately slipped to No. 20 overall. Houston jumped at the chance to add Whitmore to their talented young core.
Whitmore averaged 19.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 2.0 assists per game and showed plenty of flashes throughout Summer League.
The league also announced the All-Summer-League Teams, which can be found below. (Some of the most recognizable names didn't earn a spot on either team since they were shut down early.)
All-Summer-League First Team:
• Keyonte George, Utah Jazz
• Sam Merrill, Cleveland Cavaliers
• Orlando Robinson, Miami Heat
• Hunter Tyson, Denver Nuggets
• Cam Whitmore, Houston Rockets
All-Summer-League Second Team:
• Max Christie, Los Angeles Lakers
• Javon Freeman-Liberty, Chicago Bulls
• Xavier Moon, Los Angeles Clippers
• Emoni Bates, Cleveland Cavaliers
• Jabari Smith Jr., Houston Rockets
• Jalen Wilson, Brooklyn Nets
Due to a tie in voting between Christie and Moon, both players were added to the All-Summer-League Second Team.
