Inactive for the Lakers’ first game of the summer on Saturday, James was available and in the starting lineup on Sunday. He only played 11 minutes, but the Lakers guard knocked down two corner threes and opened the action with a breakaway dunk. Expecting Bronny to earn consistent rotation minutes next season may be a bit ambitious, but this is an important summer for him after playing sparingly as a rookie.

The expectation for NBA rotation players, especially ones that are 24 years old, is that they will dominate Summer League. That wasn’t the case for Knecht in his first game of the summer. The defensive stats were good to see, but he should be dominating as a scorer. There’s no need to panic after one game, but he needs to play better and really prove that he should be in the rotation next year.

Hayes appeared in 56 games for the Lakers last season, making 35 starts. However, his role will be different in 2025-26, as Deandre Ayton has agreed to a two-year deal and will be the starting center. Hayes finished last season with averages of 6.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 0.9 blocks on 19.5 minutes per game. He did not provide consistent fantasy value as a starter, which should remain the case now that Hayes will be coming off the bench.

The Warriors gave Melton the full midlevel exception last offseason, but lost the 27-year-old shooting guard to a season-ending ACL injury six games into the season. Melton was traded along with three future second-round picks to the Nets for Dennis Schroder in midseason, but he could be on his way back to Golden State this offseason.

Spencer got hot early in this game, knocking down three three-pointers rather quickly. He didn’t maintain that pace, but he was still a threat from deep throughout the night. It was a big night for Spencer after he scored 14 points with five rebounds and five assists on Saturday. He signed a two-year deal to remain with Memphis when free agency opened.

Mitchell dominated against Memphis on Saturday, and while he didn’t shoot the ball that well in this game, he was still able to contribute plenty of value. The 2024 second-round pick has played really well through two games this summer after a strong rookie season. He’ll have a chance to be part of the OKC rotation next season, and it wouldn’t be shocking if he didn’t play many more games this summer.
