Jordan Walsh put together another encouraging Summer League performance on Wednesday, his second in three attempts. And once again, it was full of the kind of promising signs that you want to see from a prospect when he steps onto the court for the first time in Las Vegas.
With a 25-point outburst – which came along with eight rebounds, two assists, and a steal – Walsh vaulted himself into encouraging company among the leaders in Las Vegas. Points per game at Summer League isn’t exactly a predictor of future success, and we don’t have to pretend Walsh will be Victor Wembanyama (in part because no one has ever been Victor Wembanyama in the history of … well, basketball).
