The story Monday night at the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, NV was more about who wasn’t playing than it was about who was playing (at least for the Orlando Magic).
Basketball fans will have to wait a little bit longer to catch Paolo Banchero (the first overall pick in the ‘22 NBA Draft) face Chet Holmgren (the second overall selection).
After two rather stellar performances through Orlando’s first two summer league contests, news broke Monday afternoon (from veteran reporter Marc Stein) that the Magic were opting to shut Banchero down for the remainder of the team’s summer schedule in Las Vegas.
