Former Arkansas men's basketball forward Adou Thiero will miss the NBA Summer League as he "continues the recovery process" from the hyperextended left knee he suffered that caused him to miss 8 of the Razorbacks' final 9 games of the season, according to a report from The Athletic.

The NBA Summer League is scheduled to begin July 10.

Thiero, who is listed at 6-foot-8 and 220 pounds, led the Razorbacks in scoring and rebounding, averaging 15.1 and 5.8, respectively. He was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers with the NBA Draft's No. 36 overall pick last Thursday.
