At 8:30 PM on July 20th, the NBA Summer League continues with the Spurs facing off against the 76ers.
The Spurs have already played 6 games in the summer league. After suffering two consecutive defeats at the beginning, the team quickly regained its form, first defeating the Chinese national team for their first win, and then achieving a three-game winning streak in Las Vegas. Currently, they have a record of 4 wins and 2 losses, having won four consecutive games. In their last game against the Pelicans, they held off the opponent’s counterattack, securing a victory with a score of 90-85. Despite the absence of Caser due to an ankle injury, the team has maintained its momentum with multiple scorers contributing double-digit points, extending their winning streak.
Originally, the Spurs’ focus in this summer league was on their 4th overall pick, Caser, whose performance was on the rise. In his most recent game against the Trail Blazers, he scored 22 points, grabbed 5 rebounds, and assisted 4 times. Unfortunately, he suffered from a wrist sprain and had to withdraw from the summer league early. Caser praised the team’s decision as wise. Although missing Caser, the Spurs still possess decent overall strength. Their goal is now to aim for a five-game winning streak, which could potentially put them in contention for the championship.
The 76ers have also played 6 games in the summer league but have only managed a 3 win, 3 loss record. However, in their previous game against the Wolves, they narrowly won with a high free throw shooting rate of 44 out of 40, securing a victory with a final score of 92-90 and avoiding a losing streak. The 16th overall pick, McCain, performed well, scoring 21 points and grabbing 7 rebounds, with crucial free throws helping secure the win in the end.
This time around, the 76ers are heavily focused on McCain. Known as the “Magician Brother” on social media, his current form is not very good. McCain himself acknowledged this, stating that he is a rookie and his performance may fluctuate, but he strives to maintain balance and control what he can control. Against the Spurs, whether McCain can continue to perform at a high level will be crucial to the 76ers’ chances of victory.
