James Wiseman Looks Good On Friday Night

Golden State Warriors center James Wiseman finished with 14 points in the loss to OKC in Las Vegas on Friday night. As expected, the big man logged just over 20 minutes. He went 4-for-6 from the field, draining his lone attempt from deep while adding seven boards, two assists, and a block. Throughout Summer Leauge, […]

Charles Bassey Logs Only Three Points On Friday

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Charles Bassey had only three points in 16 minutes during the win over the Nuggets in Las Vegas. Despite Bassey's performance on Friday night, the 21-year-old has played relatively well throughout his time in Summer League. While Paul Reed appears to have a more promising upside, Bassey may at least continue to […]

Will Smith Falls Homer Shy Of Cycle Friday

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith fell a home run shy of hitting for the cycle in Friday's 9-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels in Game 1 of the two-game Freeway Series.

Isaiah Jackson Done At Summer League

The Indiana Pacers announced on Thursday that power forward/center Isaiah Jackson won't be logging anymore minutes at this year's Summer League. Jackson was a bit of a surprising addition to the team's Summer League roster as he had a productive rookie year in 2021-22 when he was healthy. Across his three Summer League outings, he […]

Deandre Ayton Agrees To Offer Sheet With Pacers

The Phoenix Suns officially have 48 hours to match the Indiana Pacers maximum offer sheet on Deandre Ayton. The stud big man has agreed to a four-year $133 million deal with the organization. The Suns clearly haven't viewed Ayton as a max-level player, so we'll see if this changes their tune. This is the largest […]

Gabriel Moreno Returns To Triple-A

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Gabriel Moreno was optioned back to Triple-A on Tuesday to clear a roster spot for fellow catcher Danny Jansen. Moreno saw his first exposure to the big leagues over the last month and the results were mostly good on the offensive front. Over 18 games, he slashed .276/.300/.293 while maintaining a […]

Francisco Alvarez Just 2-For-20 At Triple-A

New York Mets catching prospect Francisco Alvarez has gained a lot of attention recently as the team has mentioned him as a potential call-up on the horizon this year. He was promoted to Triple-A earlier this month and he has struggled so far in his limited exposure to the top level of the minors. Over […]

Joey Bart On The Bench Wednesday

San Francisco Giants catcher Joey Bart isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks and right-handed starter Zac Gallen. So far this season, Bart is hitting .168 with a .299 on-base percentage and five home runs in 127 plate appearances. Instead, the Giants will start Austin Wynns at catcher against Gallen and […]

San Francisco Giants utility man Yermin Mercedes had a nice game at the plate in Tuesday's 13-0 win over the Diamondbacks. Mercedes went 3-for-4 with a single, a double, a two-run home run, four RBI, and a walk. The 29-year-old has had just 31 plate appearances with the Giants so far this season but has […]
