Boozer produced 15 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and four assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 111-74 Summer League win over the Thunder.

Boozer looked comfortable in his Summer League debut, scoring efficiently and putting his playmaking skills on display. He finished with a plus-10 differential in the blowout win, so it was a solid start for the No. 3 overall pick. The Grizzlies will look to notch their second straight win against the Jazz on Monday.

Lopez won't suit up for Summer League in Salt Lake City due to a mild left hamstring strain, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.

Lopez tweaked his hamstring during the pre-draft process, so the Grizzlies will take a cautious approach and hold him out of their three exhibition games in Salt Lake City. He'll be re-evaluated once the team arrives in Las Vegas for Summer League on July 9.

Clayton won't play during Summer League in Salt Lake City due to a mild right knee sprain, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.

Clayton will be re-evaluated when the team gets to Las Vegas on July 9, but he will skip Memphis' three exhibition games in Salt Lake City. Clayton had a strong close to his rookie season, putting in averages of 9.7 points, 5.7 assists and 1.4 triples per game after the All-Star break.

Temple is set to join the Mavs coaching staff for the 2026-27 season, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.

Temple will transition into a coaching role on Dusty May's staff in Dallas, likely signaling the end of his playing days. Across 16 NBA seasons, Temple averaged 5.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.

Jones signed a two-way contract with the Bucks on Saturday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Jones was a second-round pick of the Pacers in the 2025 NBA Draft and averaged 4.4 points, 3.2 assists and 1.6 rebounds over 16.6 minutes per game across 37 regular-season contests (seven starts) in 2025-26. He was traded to the Bulls in June before being waived, but he'll now get a fresh start with a Bucks team that is also in a reset after trading Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Heat in June.

Carr finished with 19 points (7-15 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 24 minutes in Friday's 104-72 California Classic Summer League loss to Golden State.

Carr led the Lakers in scoring while tying Yaxel Lendeborg for a game-high 19 points. He also made five three-point shots, three more than the rest of the team combined. The 2026 No. 24 overall pick is coming off a sound 2025-26 campaign at Baylor, where he averaged 18.9 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.9 steals on 49.4 percent shooting from the field and 37.4 percent shooting from deep across 33.7 minutes in 34 regular-season and postseason games. While Carr displayed flashes of promise in his Summer League debut, he faces an uphill battle for consistent playing time with the Lakers in 2026-27.

Richard finished with 16 points (6-8 FG, 4-5 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and three steals across 21 minutes in Friday's 104-72 California Classic Summer League victory over the Lakers.

Richard, the No. 56 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, wasn't a reliable producer for the Warriors throughout his inaugural year. However, the 23-year-old was serviceable when called upon, averaging 8.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.1 blocks and 1.3 steals across 24.4 minutes in 21 regular-season starts. Richard has proven he can play at the NBA level, and it's possible he could show more signs of growth in his second season, especially if he continues to get opportunities to start.

Lendeborg finished with 19 points (6-6 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block across 22 minutes in Friday's 104-72 California Classic Summer League win over the Lakers.

Lendeborg had a fantastic showing Friday, scoring a team-high 19 points while going a perfect 4-for-4 from deep. The 2026 No. 11 overall pick is coming off a quality 2025-26 campaign at Michigan, where he averaged 15.1 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 steals over 30.2 minutes in 40 regular-season and postseason games. It's unknown how much action Lendeborg will see this summer, though it appears his performance Friday already improved his odds of carving out a meaningful role with the Warriors heading into the regular season.

Manon agreed to a two-way deal with the Lakers on Friday, Khobi Price of The California Post reports.

Manon spent most of the 2025-26 campaign in the G League. The 24-year-old did make nine regular-season appearances for the parent club, though he averaged only 0.8 points, 1.1 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.2 blocks and 0.6 steals over 5.1 minutes in those contests.

Young finished with 21 points (8-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and three steals over 28 minutes in Friday's 88-87 California Classic Summer League victory over San Antonio.

Young tied rookie Ryan Conwell with a game-high 21 points. Although Young committed four turnovers, he made amends by amassing three steals while shooting an efficient 42.9 percent from deep. The 25-year-old appeared in 14 regular-season games for Miami in 2025-26, averaging 1.8 points, 0.3 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 0.1 steals across 4.1 minutes. The Heat declined Young's $2.41 million option, making him an unrestricted free agent. Still, he could earn another two-way contract or at least get a chance to try out for the team in training camp.
