Hopkins notched 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 106-103 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Thunder.

Hopkins continues to play well in Las Vegas, reaching double figures in scoring while doing a nice job on the glass. The second-round pick is an intriguing prospect, but it'll be tough for him to carve out a rotation role while Cameron Johnson and Aaron Gordon remain healthy.

Brazile (shoulder) registered 32 points (11-19 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one steal and one block over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 106-103 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Thunder.

Brazile sat out Saturday's win over the Timberwolves due to a shoulder issue but returned Tuesday with a game-high 32 points, suggesting the injury won't be a concern moving forward. He'll look to keep rolling in Tuesday's rematch against the Thunder.

Watkins (knee) was inactive for Tuesday's 99-87 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Bulls.

This was Watkins' second straight game on the sidelines, although he continues to be listed as day-to-day. His next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Clippers.

Sellers finished with 24 points (7-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), one rebound, three assists, three steals and one block across 27 minutes in Tuesday's 99-87 win over Washington.

Sellers had a game-high 24 points, surpassing the 20-point mark for the first time in his three Las Vegas Summer League appearances. His struggles shooting from deep continued, though he has looked good overall. The 23-year-old is currently signed to a two-way deal with the Bulls. With that in mind, Sellers will need to continue playing well throughout his remaining time in Las Vegas. However, that still may not result in him climbing the depth chart heading into the 2026-27 campaign.

Wilson finished with 19 points (7-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one block across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 99-86 Summer League victory over Washington.

Wilson had another fantastic Summer League performance, amassing 19 points for a second straight contest. While the 2026 No. 4 overall pick has committed a combined 13 turnovers in his three Las Vegas Summer League appearances, he has made up for it by totaling seven steals and nine blocks during that span. It's unclear how much more action Wilson will see during the Bulls' remaining time in Las Vegas, though it wouldn't be surprising if he were shut down, considering he's already expected to hold a prominent role in the rotation during the 2026-27 campaign.

Richmond came through with 11 points (4-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two steals over 28 minutes in Tuesday's 99-87 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Bulls.

Richmond led the Wizards in rebounds, but he also committed four of the team's 24 turnovers. Washington struggled offensively as a whole, shooting 29-of-69 from the field and 6-of-22 from beyond the arc in the blowout loss.

Christie (ankle) won't play in Tuesday's Summer League game versus the Lakers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Christie had seven points, nine rebounds, one assist and one steal across 26 minutes in Sunday's 104-82 Summer League win over Utah. His next opportunity to suit up will come Wednesday against Washington, though it won't be surprising if he doesn't play in that contest.

Richard finished with 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block over 26 minutes in Tuesday's 106-85 loss to Golden State.

Richard finally reached double figures in scoring Tuesday, though he also committed a game-high five turnovers. The 23-year-old wasn't overly productive in his first season in the NBA. However, in his 21 regular-season starts, he averaged 8.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.1 blocks and 1.3 steals over 24.4 minutes. Richard will look to earn minutes with the Warriors during the 2026-27 campaign, with his clearest path to playing time likely coming if several players on the roster suffer injuries.

Lendeborg recorded 15 points (6-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and two steals over 29 minutes during Tuesday's 106-85 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Grizzlies.

Lendeborg shot 5-for-14 from the field in his previous outing, so it was nice to see him snap back with an efficient scoring effort. He's shown impressive playmaking ability and a knack for pulling down rebounds in Las Vegas.

Small finished with 26 points (7-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two blocks across 27 minutes in Tuesday's 106-85 Summer League win over the Warriors.

Small had only three points in Monday's 96-88 loss to Dallas. However, he responded resoundingly versus Golden State, scoring a game-high 26 points. The 23-year-old didn't see routine work in his 41 regular-season appearances with Memphis in 2025-26. Still, Small stepped up when needed, averaging 13.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 0.1 blocks and 1.2 steals over 27.0 minutes in 12 regular-season starts. He is expected to spend most of his time in the G League during the 2026-27 campaign, though he should still receive minutes sporadically with the Grizzlies.
