Overview
- Memphis opened Salt Lake City Summer League with a 111-74 victory over Oklahoma City on July 4, with the Grizzlies building a 66-44 halftime lead and at one point leading by 41 points.
- No. 3 pick Cameron Boozer scored 15 points, grabbed 4 rebounds and handed out 4 assists in 24 minutes while shooting 7-of-11, and he said after the game he felt comfortable and credited preparation and team play.
- The Grizzlies got balanced scoring from a deep roster — Olivier-Maxence Prosper led with 17 and six other players reached double figures — and the team finished with 33 assists on 38 made field goals.
- Scouts and reporters highlighted Boozer’s passing, floor spacing and positional versatility as traits that could let him operate as a playmaking frontcourt piece alongside big men like Zach Edey.
- Memphis will use remaining Summer League games to manage Boozer’s minutes and continue evaluation, with the outcome likely to shape his short-term development plan and the direction of the team’s rebuild.
