Is this just now being announced? 

Wife said she saw it on Instagram a month ago. Our son went last year and really liked it, unfortunately he will miss it this year due to vacation.

Dove for the ball and an opposing player accidentally came down on him and slammed his face into the hardwood. Looked like a gash above his eye.

I haven't seen any of the games yet so maybe there's a reason for it, but I see Enrique is only averaging 5 points per game through three summer league games. Not really ideal when looking to make a case for NBA time in a crucial year. Hopefully he closes out strong!

Do you watch Summer league games? It is like watching a bunch of kids playing a pickup game at the local park. It is every man for himself.

He has been averaging a double double in the G League. He'll be fine.

I did not see Monday's game but Freeman was a -29 and there is no way you can spin that in a good way.  He did lead the team with 7 rebounds.  He also had 4 assists and only one turnover.  I watched the first 2 games and Freeman is usually in the corner as a wing and just does not have a lot of offensive moves to the basket.  He sets ball screens and cuts to the basket but most times comes up empty handed even if he is open.   Sometimes he pops up behind the 3 line but has not been htting the 3 ball. His defense has been good along with his rebounding.  Very active on the offensive glass.  The Timberwolves gave his a 2 way so they are invested in him this season.  He also got cut Friday diving for a ball so that certainly indicates his toughness.  It is way too early to judge him based on summer league play.

Enrique has enough on film now between his limited NBA play and the G-League.  At this juncture he needs a team to believe in him more than he needs stellar rookie league performances.

I watched some of the Freeman's game today when the World Cup was not on and Freeman looked good scoring 14 points and 11 rebounds including 6 offensive rebounds.  At the end of the game he was a beast on the offensive boards givning Minn multiple offensive possessions.
