Acuff will be rested for Wednesday's Summer League game against the Celtics, Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

The Kings will also rest Nique Clifford and Maxime Raynaud during the second leg of this back-to-back set. It remains to be seen if Acuff will suit up for Friday's exhibition against Charlotte. Acuff produced 26 points (9-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five assists, one steal and one block over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 115-83 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Nets.

Raynaud (rest) is out for Wednesday's Summer League game against Boston, per Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140.

Raynaud is sitting out the second leg of this back-to-back set after playing only 15 minutes Tuesday against Brooklyn. His next opportunity to suit up comes Friday against Charlotte.

Beringer (back) is out for Wednesday's Summer League game against the Pacers.

Beringer is sidelined for a third consecutive contest due to back tightness. The 2025 first-rounder's next chance to play will come Friday against the Clippers, but it wouldn't be surprising if the Timberwolves proceeded with caution.

Alexander (ribs) is out for Wednesday's Summer League game against the Spurs, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

No surprise here, as Alexander was diagnosed with a rib contusion back on Monday. His next chance to play comes Friday against Portland.

Bailey (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Spurs, per Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City.

Bailey is nursing right back spasms in the aftermath of Sunday's Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Clippers. His next chance to play will come Friday against Portland.

Peterson (rest) is available to play in Wednesday's Summer League game against the Spurs, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

After getting a maintenance day Monday, Peterson will be back in action. The rookie is averaging 22.3 points and 5.5 assists through four exhibitions.

Williams (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Spurs, per Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City.

Williams is battling an illness and is considered day-to-day. His next chance to play comes Friday against Portland.

Conwell (hip) won't play again during the Las Vegas Summer League, per Tim Reynolds of the Associated Press.

The Heat are erring on the side of caution while the rookie second-rounder tends to a hip injury. Conwell has plenty of time to heal up ahead of training camp in the fall, when he'll likely be competing with Dru Smith for the backup point guard role behind Davion Mitchell for 2026-27.

Mitchell (rest) is out for Wednesday's Summer League game against the Kings, per Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes.com.

The Celtics are managing the rookie second-rounder's reps Wednesday. Mitchell has made three Summer League appearances already, averaging 13.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.7 steals in 26.0 minutes per game.

Wagler finished with 16 points (6-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 30 minutes in Tuesday's 99-85 Summer League loss to the Lakers.

Wagler had 23 points in Sunday's 104-82 Summer League win over Utah. He wasn't as productive Tuesday, but it was still a quality effort. The 19-year-old will need to address some areas of his game heading into the 2026-27 campaign. Still, Wagler should get plenty of opportunities to improve during the season, considering he could see ample playing time right out of the gate.
