Jevon Carter has been expected to be nothing more than a defensive specialist for the Memphis Grizzlies since his selection in the second round. The team fit his personality and his skillset the best with their Grit’n’Grind mentality. Any offensive production by Carter would be seen as a bonus. Saturday night, the Grizzlies got their summer bonus early.

Carter tallied a summer league personal high of 26 points on 11-of-22 shooting (50%) including 1-of-4 from three point (25%) and 3-of-4 (75%) free throws.
