The Cleveland Cavaliers fell short in a 94-86 loss to the Sacramento Kings in the 2025 NBA Summer League.
Cleveland's Jaylon Tyson and Craig Porter, Jr. were out of action, leaving the Cavs without two impact leaders. Tyson was one of the Cavaliers' standout players this summer, and Porter missed his third consecutive match.
Their absences opened the pathway for rookie Tyrese Proctor to make an early impression in front of the Las Vegas crowd. With more on-ball responsibilities placed on the newcomer, he took full advantage of the chance to set himself apart. Leading the game with 35 points, Proctor is wasting no time making himself known.
