Any word if McCallum was added to the Spurs roster?

He's not listed on the roster on the Spurs page on NBA.com, but who knows how fast they update such things.

Kyle Anderson may be wondering now why 3 other Spurs players that are eligible for summer league play aren't in the roster:

McCallum
Simmons
Marjanovic

Kyle, hopefully, is more concentrating on his own game.

im excited by the new prospects..........

Porzingis?! A nice and controversial aspect to this summer league game. Somebody shut him down. Make Knicks fans cry a little bit more.

I think this is the Knicks first summer league game. If so, it will be the world's first chance to see Porzingis in a Knicks' uniform.

I'm rooting for Bertans to make the Spurs. Hope we have the best Latvian on the floor tonight.

Is Phil Jackson coaching the summer league? Have a hard time believing he could convince someone else to coach that roster he built.

Surprised we didn't try to sign or trade for that guy tbqh.

:flag:

Apparently Kristaps is still growing? He was listed as 7-1 leading up to the draft, now listed at 7-3.

Saw that. Wasn't Tim listed at 7ft alongside David, so they could be part of a twin 7ft towers schtick, but then he magically shrunk an inch when Robinson retired? Those height listings are a joke tbqh.

NBA looks at height in shoes. That adds couple of inches.

True. Plus the guy is young enough to probably still be growing.

I wonder if Lalanne has any hope of making the team this year? Probably not with the Bobi's signing.

So are we going to see Simmons and/or McCallum on the team me today?

yup 3:30

I'm really hoping Simmons is on the team now.

Does anyone know if teams are able to add to their Summer League team after the deadline to set the roster? I seem to remember it being pretty fluid but not as much this year and last year.

He played for the Nets in Orlando and was scheduled to play for the Nets in Vegas. He obviously won't play for the Nets now but I don't know if he'll be on the Spurs team.

Thanks...didn't know if he had to ride it out. Was looking for the Nets next game earlier. Can't wait to see him!

Been looking for Simmons twitter feed to see if he mentions playing in Vegas but there's a million people with that name. Anyone know his handle?

Wish the new PG, SG, and Giant would play.... Im getting a little tired of trying to get excited about Kyle Anderson slowly dragging his big ass head up and down the court.

I seem to remember that happening with some second rounder before, so I think it's possible -- especially with Wolters out.

But there might be paperwork or physicals or whatever that keeps him from playing this particular game.

Parker is going to be pissed.

Congrats to Becky. I'm sure this is a big moment for her. :tu

Just play the starters a lot, Becky.

Gimme dat Becky, tbh.

Added some wrinkles and have her going bald to make her look more like a coach, I guess.

Firstrow

Has LJC made a jump shot yet in SL tbh?

They have Breen/Frazier (the MSG commentators) on NBATV as well, so I don't think it matters what feed you're watching.

Porzingis is upgraded to 7'3. He looks it next to 6'10 Cady. Guy is huge.

Give Porzinigis time. He could be a more athletic Dirk.

Good timeout Becky....

Lol this team. None of this guys could play in the nba.

Becky is a failure already

Such a terrible amount of basketball being played right now. Will cherry is such a piss poor pg. nobody on this team should be on a roster

Can we trade anderson already

lol summer league snobs

Who is the young white guy next to Becky? He always sat next to Becky last season too tbh.

KA really is beginning to lose my support.

He's already more athletic than Dirk ever was, tbh.

I doubt that Porzingis will ever be the shot creater Dirk was. But he doesn't have to be that to still be a really good player.

They literally haven't stopped talking about Porzingis since this game started :lol

He's been very disappointing. Bummer.

simmons

Kyle Anderson has already missed an easy floater and gotten smashed by a complete Porzingis block.

Lalanne's first shot was way off the mark.

Jean-Charles has already missed a shot and tallied 2 fouls.

Jerrell Eddie should have been credited with at least one turnover already (but apparently wasn't) on a really sloppy play.

Not an auspicious start.

Just got home from a movie and turned the game on. Looks like I missed some crappy Spurs defense.

Simmons is easily the best athlete on the Spurs SL team. Not even close. I think he's prob going to force it a bit today though now that people are really watching him.

I've never been impressed with Anderson.

I cringe every time he has the ball. Hes just hard to watch. It seriously feels like a turnover waiting to happen every time he touches the ball.

Like I said from the beginning Kyle Anderson is trash. Just a bigger De Culo.

That's what I meant. He Could Be another Dirk, only more athletic.

Yep. Darius reminds me of that older guy in your pickup game. Not quite as athletic, but he knows what he's doing out there.

Solid passing from Dairis there.
