Orlando Magic No. 1 draft pick Poalo Banchero and No. 32 pick Caleb Houston headline the Las Vegas Summer League roster, announced Wednesday.
Magic Summer League play is scheduled for a tip-off against the Houston Rockets on ESPN on July 7. Banchero, Houston, third-year guard RJ Hampton and season-ending signing of Devin Kennedy are among the participants.
Franz Wagner, a rookie candidate of the year, who will be entering its second season, is not participating.
Games will take place at the Thomas and Mack Center and Cox Pavilion on UNLV’s campus in Las Vegas, and will feature all 30 NBA teams.
Magic will have four games, with the fifth game being TBD. The two teams with the best record in the first four matches will meet in a championship match on 17 July.
The Summer League team will be led by assistant coach Jesse Murmues. Note that summer league rosters will change as players will be cut, change teams, or play for multiple teams in Las Vegas. Most are unrestricted free agents.
