Summer League Recap: Cleveland 92, Houston 87 (or, Scoochie takes over)

The Cavs advanced today in the NBA Summer League tournament by defeating the undefeated Rockets 92-87. The game was competitive and hard-fought, with neither team being able to dominate the other. I’ve watched a bit of Houston play, and I have to say, this was an impressive win for the Cavs this summer.

Player of the game: Scoochie Smith

A four year player for the Dayton Flyers, Smith turned in his best performance of the summer at the most opportune time, with 17 points (6-12 FGs, 3-5 3pt FGs), three assists, and a game high +9 in only 18 minutes.
