As the 2021-2022 NBA season has come to a close, the 2022 NBA Summer League is kicking off with three former Virginia Cavaliers taking part. Specifically, Trey Murphy will take on a leadership role with the New Orleans Pelicans, Sam Hauser will hope to prove he’s worth a multi-year contract with the Boston Celtics, and Jay Huff will look to show off his high potential with the purple and gold.
While Hauser and Murphy won’t start play until the ninth, Huff and the Lakers have already hit the hardwood. In 21 minutes yesterday against the Heat the North Carolina native tallied nine points, seven rebounds, and two assists while also putting his ridiculous dunking ability on full display.
