Las Vegas Summer League Preview Game 2: Utah Jazz vs. Sacramento Kings
The Utah Jazz are heading into game two of the Las Vegas Summer League after an intense win over the Dallas Mavericks. With no Keyonte George and Walker Kessler, I was curious to know who was going to step up and well all three rookies did. Isaiah Collier looked NBA-ready out there and someone I can see playing alongside Keyonte in the future. His decision-making was good and he had some nice assists putting up 7. Cody Williams was just as great leading the team in scoring putting up 21, he was getting to the basket and shot 50% from three. Last, did we just watch a Kyle Filipowski statement game? He looked better in this game than all three Salt Lake City Summer League’s combined. He got to the basket, showed his passing ability, and wasn’t bad on defense, really great showing. There were a lot of bright spots in this win. Let’s see if they can keep it up against the Sacramento Kings.
