Finally, Dunn scores on a close-in shot.

One can't help but like Oso because he plays smart. He reminds me a bit of Cam Johnson for some reason, except the shooting.

Even in summer league, the Suns get dominated on the boards.

ESPN says two steals and two blocked shots. I haven't noticed any blocks by the Suns. Seems like the GS squad has made everything they shot!

Dunn gets the steal. He will be better in team play because he can play defense.

At least the Suns win both of their challenges. :)

Roddy has been absolutely garbage. Let 3 or 4 backdoor cuts for dunks/fouls behind him, turned the ball over constantly, blocked on 2 or 3 different shots and bricked the rest.

Nothing redeeming for him this game.

Did anyone see anything exciting? The Oso dunk in quarter one was awesome. Dunn showed some skills junking up the passing lanes and getting some steals. Lots of turn overs for the Summer League team just like the main club. :(

Those two overturned calls were it.

I think Oso will play better with the regular team. Screens and DHOs with Book/Beal is a lot different than ones from David Roddy or Devoe.

Dunn looked pretty good on the defensive end with good pressure on the ball, but he's reaching a lot. He'll get called for a lot of fouls if he continues to do that, just needs to keep shuffling his feet and keep his hands up.

That was hard to watch, but I think the Warriors won the California league, whatever that may be.

There was that one half court shot that hit the top of the backboard and went in if the referees had counted it. That would have been exciting for the Suns.

It was all net afterward.

Dunn's D is really good. Besides from the 3 steals, his presence forced at least 2 other TOs. He blocked a TJD shot and disrupted several others including that one on Plowden which was called foul initially but successfully challenged by Suns.
Suns problem was lack of good PG play, not many sussessful cuts, and bad at delivering lob passes. They were forced to take many 3pt shots with bricks. Dunn was the only bright spot in the whole.
