Clayton (knee) didn't play in Saturday's 101-90 win over the Rockets in the Las Vegas Summer League Semifinals.

Clayton has yet to play this summer due to a right knee sprain. His final chance to suit up in Summer League will come in Sunday's title game against the winner of Saturday's Warriors-Lakers matchup.

Boozer supplied 12 points (3-13 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block in 31 minutes during Saturday's 101-90 win over the Rockets in the Las Vegas Summer League Semifinals.

Boozer struggled mightily with efficiency in this one, though he was still one of five Grizzlies players to score in double figures. The rookie No. 3 overall pick was productive outside the scoring column as well, grabbing a game-high 12 boards while tying for second on the team in assists. Boozer and the Grizzlies will now look toward the Las Vegas Summer League Championship on Sunday, when they'll face the winner of Saturday's Warriors-Lakers matchup.

Coward racked up 28 points (9-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block over 28 minutes during Saturday's 101-90 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Rockets.

Coward was locked in on both ends of the floor, helping the Grizzlies punch their ticket to the Las Vegas Summer League Finals. He finished with a plus-10 rating and committed just one turnover in the convincing victory.

Ament amassed 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block across 27 minutes in Saturday's 96-94 Summer League win over Philadelphia.

Ament was unable to capitalize at the charity stripe Saturday, though he turned in an efficient performance from the field and tied for second on the team in scoring. The rookie No. 13 overall pick also finished second on the Bucks in rebounds. The Tennessee product scored in double figures in two of his five Las Vegas Summer League games, knocking down multiple triples in each of his last three appearances. He shot 38.9 percent from beyond the arc in Summer League play.
