LAS VEGAS — Expectations were not high heading into the Atlanta Hawks Summer League finale against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday evening. Both teams were playing it conservatively during their last evening in Las Vegas and sat multiple players likely to be relevant to their respective upcoming NBA seasons.
The Hawks were without De’Andre Hunter (4th overall pick), Bruno Fernando (34th overall pick) and Jordan Sibert (42 games with Hawks’ G League affiliate last year). That’s in additon to Cam Reddish (10th overall pick) having missed all of Summer League play.
On the Spurs side, Lonnie Walker IV (18th overall pick last season), Luka Samanic (19th overall pick), Keldon Johnson (29th overall pick) and Quinndary Weatherspoon (49th overall pick) each sat out the game.
