Jackson, Robinson, Morris sizzle in Summer League

While the start of the 2018-19 NBA season is still months away, there were plenty of familiar faces who competed in the Summer League.

Here's a look back at how players with local ties fared in the Utah, Sacramento and Las Vegas tournaments.

Jaren Jackson Jr.

Local tie: Michigan State

Team: Memphis Grizzlies

Recap: The No. 4 overall pick put his shot-blocking prowess and pick-and-pop ability from 3-point range on full display in both Sacramento and Las Vegas. Jackson had several top moments, including his 29-point outing where he hit eight 3-pointers against the Hawks and near triple-double (nine points, nine rebounds, seven blocks) against the Jazz, en route to earning All-Summer League second team honors.
