Jaden Hardy is excited to play in Summer League. The Dallas Mavericks’ second-round pick in the 2022 NBA Draft is ready to showcase his skills as the NBA world looks on. Luckily, he’s already played a year of professional basketball in the G League.
While he may have a leg up on some of his competition in that regard, there will be pressure on him. Not only does he have to play to the level his coaches expect, but he’ll also face tough defenses and the media scrutiny that comes with playing in the NBA spotlight.
