The Brooklyn Nets played their second game of Las Vegas Summer League on Sunday night at Thomas & Mack Arena. The team with five first-round picks (four healthy) got the main stage against the Washington Wizards, rostering plenty of intriguing young talent of their own.
The two teams delivered, putting up plenty of points, highlight plays, and a battle that went down to the wire. Calling it a Summer League Classic might be a stretch, but it was a fantastic game and a massive improvement on Brooklyn’s first showing.
It started with #8 overall pick Egor Dëmin hitting two threes in his first stint, and making a couple nice plays for others.
