The Nets, who haven’t won yet in Summer League, will play its first game in the league tournament Wednesday evening, facing the Rockets at Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas. The game is televised on ESPN2.
Jarrett Allen will play but Caris LeVert is not. Also neither Rodions Kurucs (unresolved buyout) and Juan Pablo Vaulet (foot injury) are out. Vaulet, in fact, has returned to Argentina without playing a minute. Yuta Watanabe and Shawn Dawson have been the leading scorers in their absence
The Rockets will feature two players who wore Nets jerseys in 2015, Markel Brown and Quincy Miller.
