LAS VEGAS -- Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons gave fans plenty to be excited about in the first 39 minutes of Portland's contest versus the Utah Jazz Tuesday afternoon at the Las Vegas Summer League.
But in the final minute, he likely put quite a scare into those same fans.
The 6-4 guard entering his second season out of IMG Academy put up a 2019 Las Vegas Summer League high 35 points before suffering a grade 1 right ankle sprain in the final moments of Portland's 97-93 loss to Utah Tuesday afternoon at COX Pavilion on the campus of UNLV.
