After dropping 26 points in his debut of the 2017 Las Vegas NBA Summer League with the Washington Wizards, guard Jared Cunningham followed up his first prolific outing with another strong showing in the Wizards 91-87 loss against the Miami Heat on Monday afternoon. In the contest, Cunningham dropped 16 points on 4-9 shooting from the field, while also chipping in three rebounds, an assist and a steal. Through two games in the Summer League, Cunningham is now averaging 21 points per outing.
The most impressive part about Cunningham’s play through the first two contests of the Summer League has not only been his ability to score at will, but also his knack for getting to the free-throw line consistently.
