In his first pro game, Kilpatrick dropped 20 points. With the 76ers being in everlasting tank mode Kila might get some play this season. At the very least he should get a chance with another squad.
 
Sean Kilpatrick and Jordan McRae paced the squad with 20 points apiece.

Eleven of Kilpatrick’s points came in the first quarter. The shooting guard shot 7 of 13 from the field and made 3 of 5 three-pointers.


NICE!!!!
 
Anyone find any video highlights?!

Great to hear knew he would tear it up, all these first round picks and hes the best player on the court, always overlooked but always makes you pay for overlooking him
this is all i could find shows him scoring once, mostly features exum who sk out play imo

I wasn't that impressed with Exum, especially defensively. There is no doubt that he is quick and offensively gifted, but for as much as he played, to have 4 points and 2 assists at halftime doesn't justify all the hype. It's just one game but there is no doubt that SK outplayed him. He got burnt once on a backdoor that Exum turned into a pretty alley oop. I'll take that all day if my guy drops 16 in the first half and their guy drops 4 with one awesome play.

Exactly. There was hardly any talk of sk's game only talk about the future of exum and how he is the next Kobe Bryant. Sk will be on a nba roster next season if he keeps playing like he did yesterday.
 
Sk played the Cavs tonight. 5 pts. Not much action in this game. He hit a corner 3 in transition and finished a drive with his left hand, using his body nicely. Seems like the Sixers have a lot of guys they want to get a look at. Sk probably played a quarter and a half.

By my count he was 2-5, missing 2 threes (one at the end of the shot clock. He should be used to those lol) and got a shot blocked in the lane by Kirk from new Mexico.

All the talk from the announcers was about Noel, who looked really athletic and Anthony Bennett, who also had a good game. Wiggins played too with a couple highlight reels dunks.

I would like to believe the coaches for 76ers already can see what Sk can do for them as a shooter and they were just looking at other players.
 
Watching the 76ers-Suns game... have flipped back and forth between some other things, but caught SK from about the 7:30 mark to the 3:30 mark of the 2nd quarter, after which he returned to the bench (didn't start).

He got caught on one of their bigs on the block and held his own, forcing him to kick the ball out. Also took a charge. Overall didn't look bad on defense, although I did see him get caught up on a couple screens.

On offense, didn't get many touches. He did bring the ball up in transition twice. Once there were no opportunities and he held it up and passed. On another opportunity, he slowed it down near the 3-point line, then blew by his man for a layup. Also shot and missed 2 3-pointers. One was in rhythm and was a good look. The other one he held onto the ball for a minute, sized his man up, and shot it over him -- probably not a good look.

Nothing too incredible tonight, but from the two times I've watched him play, he does look like he belongs. Still needs to work on his handles though. Looks shaky compared to some of the other guards, but we all know how hard SK works. He will play in the league someday, if not this season.

Sk definitely looks like one of their top 3 players on the summer roster. He has held own and it looks like he got a little bigger in the arms and shoulders. His handle needs more work but his shot looks pretty good. He hit a corner 3 as I was posting this.
 
The two best players on their roster in Vegas have been Jordan McRae and SK. It will be difficult to make the roster bc they both play the same position and McRae is having a great summer season so far. But I agree that Kilpatrick does look very comfortable playing with NBA guys
 
More of the same for Kilpatrick tonight. 19 points. Idk his entire stat line but he had a couple good assist and looked good from the 3point line. He had a couple good defense deflections and was strong on the boards. He looked tired late and had a travel call but they were blowing LA out at that point. Good showing.

Didn't see any of the game but heard he was 8/17 from the field with three 3s. Solid numbers.
 
SK came off the bench and played a team high 26 minutes. Here is his stat line:

19 points on 8/17 FG, 3/8 3P (no FT attempted)
3 rebounds
1 assist
2 steals
2 turnovers

By the way, all the summer league box scores are available on NBA.com. I'm about to look up Justin and see if he has played any minutes.
 
Jackson has only played a total of 8 minutes in 4 games, with no real stats to speak of. Not terribly surprising, but still disappointing that he hasn't had a chance to get any significant floor time.
 
SK has definitely showed that he can score in bunches. That's gonna be valuable off the bench. I'll be pretty shocked if he doesn't make the team.
