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.

Sanders finished with 18 points (6-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 27 minutes in Tuesday's 99-85 Summer League loss to the Lakers.

Sanders, the No. 50 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, was a sporadic contributor for the Clippers in his 68 regular-season appearances. Still, he had more than a few promising performances, averaging 10.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.2 blocks and 0.8 steals over 27.3 minutes in 16 regular-season starts. The players currently projected to start for Los Angeles during the 2026-27 campaign are known for durability issues. As such, Sanders could work his way back into the starting lineup at some point.

Manon compiled 17 points (5-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 99-85 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Clippers.

This was Manon's first double-double in Las Vegas, and he finished with a plus-5 differential in the win. Manon is on a two-way deal with the Lakers, so he'll likely spend the majority of the 2026-27 season in the G League.

Carr (thumb) tallied 23 points (8-18 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 3-5 FT), one rebound, two assists and one block over 29 minutes in Tuesday's 99-85 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Clippers.

Carr sat out Saturday's Summer League win over the Mavs with a minor thumb issue, but he returned Tuesday to pour in a game-high 23 points, suggesting the issue is behind him. The Lakers are 3-0 through their first three games in Las Vegas.

Stirtz finished with 22 points (8-16 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block across 30 minutes in Tuesday's 106-103 Summer League loss to the Nuggets.

Stirtz played well in his previous two Las Vegas Summer League appearances, but he was even better Tuesday, scoring a team-high 22 points. However, it wasn't enough to lift Oklahoma City to its first win of the summer. Stirtz needs to improve his three-point shooting while addressing his turnover issues. While the 22-year-old should get sporadic playing time during the 2026-27 campaign, he may have trouble finding consistent minutes.
