How did Pojemski perform upon his return? He scored points assisting TJD in grabbing rebounds.

On July 11, in the NBA Summer League, the Warriors narrowly defeated the Kings 91-90, securing their third consecutive victory in the summer league. In this match, the Warriors took the lead right from the start. Pojemski, who had returned from accompanying the U.S. men’s basketball team as a practice partner, started the game alongside TJD, which significantly boosted the Warriors’ confidence. The Warriors quickly widened the point gap. However, Ellis came to life in the second half and helped the Kings tie the score at one point. But Pojemski’s one out of two free throws in the final moments secured the win for the team.

In the entire game, Pojemski played for 28 minutes and 36 seconds as a starter, shooting 4 out of 13, 1 out of 6 from three-point range, and 6 out of 8 from the free throw line, scoring 15 points, 2 rebounds, and 4 assists, with 1 steal, 3 turnovers, and 4 fouls. Although he achieved a double-double, his shooting percentage was average.

However, his performance in the summer league has been noteworthy enough to attract attention.
