The Memphis Grizzlies have had an up-and-down Summer League season thus far. Among other players, Desmond Bane has emerged as an unexpected leader. In just his second year in the league, he has brought a veteran presence that has helped the Grizzlies along the way this summer.

Williams didn’t appear in the Grizzlies’ first couple of Summer League games, as the trade that brought him to Memphis hadn’t gone through until recently.
