The rookies are always the biggest draw at summer league. Players drafted just weeks earlier put on their new pro uniforms and compete for the first time. It’s not that big of a deal if a rookie struggles a bit in summer league,

You almost couldn’t turn on a summer league game without coming across a former state college basketball player, as UConn and Yale combined to have 10 former players competing in Las Vegas.

The number of rooks spotlighted for each team will vary. Every first-round pick who suited up will receive a grade. Second-rounders will be prioritized for teams without a top-30 selection. For squads without any drafted rookies whatsoever, we'll default to the newbie who is either most intriguing, played the most or both.
