NBA Wildcat Watch: Utah/Sacramento League Roundup (July 3)

The Utah Jazz and the Sacramento Kings’ California Classic Summer Leagues resumed action on Tuesday.

A recap of the first day, as well as a schedule of remaining games in these four-team leagues are available.

Each time a former Wildcat hits the court for Summer League play, we will recap how they did and include a few highlights (if available). This will also serve as a discussion board. We will try to keep it updated as soon as the games are over, so check back often!

Omari Spellman

Omari Spellman and the Hawks had a rough start to the game against the San Antonio Spurs. Despite an improved second half, the Hawks fell to the Spurs, 103-81. Spellman logged 10 points, seven rebounds, two steals, and a block through 24 minutes of action. It wasn’t a clean game offensively for Spellman, who was 4-of-14 overall and was 2-for-7 from deep. Once again, he had a few highlights on defense, including a steal and score, as well as another big block.

Josh Hart

After a solid 23-point showing in Monday’s game against the Sacramento Kings, Josh Hart appeared to be “too good” for Summer League play. The Lakers planned on having him participate in just that one game, but he lobbied his way into playing another game. Tuesday night didn’t go as well as Monday. Hart and the Lakers fell behind quickly against the Heat and never recovered, going on to lose 89-74.

For Hart, it was a quiet day. He had one point, one rebound, and one assist in a shortened 14 minutes of play. He missed all four of his shot attempts.
