Cedi Osman is Ready to Step Up as a Sophomore

On the physical side, Summer League gets young guys back in the gym and into an officially competitive environment before a two-and-a-half-month layoff heading into Training Camp.

But Summer League also gives young hopefuls a mental lift.

The incoming freshmen, like Collin Sexton and Billy Preston, get a taste of big league speed – and by the end of their two-week run, they know they’re either ready to hang or need some fine-tuning before September. And returning rooks, like Cedi Osman and Ante Zizic, who might’ve been fetching the veterans’ Krispy Kremes or lugging their gear are now the veterans themselves.
