Dalton Knecht

LAL Shooting Guard #4

2hDalton Knecht shot 3-of-15 from the field and 1-of-4 from the foul line in Monday’s loss to the Clippers, scoring eight points with seven rebounds, two assists, one steal and one three-pointer.

Knecht had a rough night, shooting 1-of-8 from beyond the arc and 1-of-4 from the foul line. Unfortunately for the second-year wing, he’s had more difficult nights than good ones this summer, which is concerning for the Lakers. Generally speaking, teams want to see their returnees excel in Las Vegas, if not dominate. Knecht has not done that, which may result in him playing more games at summer league than the Lakers would have hoped.

Bronny James

LAL Shooting Guard #9

2hBronny James accounted for 17 points (6-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, five assists and three three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Clippers.

James put forth his best performance of the NBA 2K26 Summer League on Monday, leading the Lakers in scoring and offering solid value in the rebound and assist categories. Looking forward to the regular season, the second-year guard is not in a great position to provide tangible fantasy value. The Lakers remain in win-now mode, likely limiting Bronny’s opportunities to contribute. His ability to crack the rotation will likely hinge on what James can provide as a defender and perimeter shooter.

Yanic Konan Niederhauser

LAC Power Forward

2hYanic Konan Niederhauser tallied 10 points (5-of-9 FGs), two rebounds and two steals in Monday’s win over the Lakers.

After two subdued performances, Konan Niederhauser was more involved offensively on Monday. The nine shot attempts exceeded his total in the Clippers’ first two games in Las Vegas, and the rookie’s teammates appeared more intent on getting him the ball. That led to a few dunks that likely boosted Konan Niederhauser’s confidence, and he finished in double figures. The hope is that he’ll be more consistent on both ends of the floor.

Jordan Miller

FA Small Forward #11

2hJordan Miller finished Monday’s win over the Lakers with 19 points (7-of-11 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, two steals and one three-pointer.

Waived by the Clippers just before the start of summer league, Miller is looking to earn another NBA opportunity, whether it’s with Los Angeles or another team. He needs to improve three-point shooting and defense, both on and off the ball. Miller looked good against the Lakers and performed well in Sunday’s win over the Bucks. The Clippers have a few standard contract slots available, and Miller may be positioning himself to earn one. However, he won’t be worth the risk in fantasy leagues.

Drew Peterson

CHA Small Forward #13

3hESPN’s Shams Charania reports the Hornets have signed Drew Peterson to a two-way contract.

After spending his first two seasons with the Celtics, Peterson is reportedly headed to Charlotte. The player and his new head coach are familiar with each other, as Hornets coach Charles Lee was a Celtics assistant during the 2023-24 season. While the change of scenery may result in more opportunities for Peterson, he is not a player to target in fantasy drafts.

Rasheer Fleming

PHX Power Forward

3hRasheer Fleming accumulated seven points (3-of-6 FGs), two rebounds, one steal, one block and one three-pointer in Monday’s loss to the Kings.

After missing Phoenix’s first two summer league games with a sore right knee, Fleming was available to make his debut on Monday. The second-round pick out of Saint Joseph’s was a Suns target, as evidenced by the team’s moves to draft him. Fleming had a quiet night, but he’s a frontcourt player who has range beyond the three-point line and can defend multiple positions. Due to the Suns’ defensive struggles last season, Fleming may be able to earn consistent playing time as a rookie.

Ryan Dunn

PHX Small Forward #0

3hRyan Dunn finished Monday’s loss to the Kings with 18 points (6-of-8 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, one assist, one steal and two three-pointers.

Dunn was back in the Suns’ lineup after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Hawks. Unfortunately for Phoenix, his return did not impact the “bottom line,” as the Suns were routed for a second straight night. Dunn was the lone player to have a good night offensively and was also solid defensively. While the Suns will likely head into training camp with a surplus of wings, Dunn’s defensive ability will get him onto the court. How much he plays will likely depend on the progress he’s able to make as a scorer.

Devin Carter

SAC Point Guard #22

3hDevin Carter amassed 17 points (7-of-12 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, three assists, three steals, one block and three three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Suns.

While Carter wasn’t as explosive offensively as on Saturday, the second-year guard still produced an efficient stat line. Not only did he shoot over 50 percent from the field, but Carter also provided value as a playmaker and defender. Being consistent in those two categories will significantly impact how much he plays next season. Dennis Schröder was signed to be the starting point guard, but the Kings need depth behind him. Carter has the potential to help fill that void, especially if he can carry over his play in Sacramento’s last two games into training camp.

Nique Clifford

SAC Shooting Guard

3hNique Clifford recorded 19 points (7-of-8 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, three assists, three steals, one block and three three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Suns.

Clifford and the Kings pulled away during the second quarter of Monday’s rout, as they outscored Phoenix by a 27-11 margin. And the rookie wing’s versatility will be an asset for Sacramento, especially when considering the words of general manager Scott Perry. During an in-game interview, he said the Kings envision Clifford being able to fill in at all three perimeter positions. If that’s how things play out, Clifford’s fantasy value will be enhanced, even with DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine in the rotation.

John Tonje

UTA Shooting Guard

4hJohn Tonje recorded 16 points (5-of-9 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, three assists, one steal and four three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Spurs.

After missing time with a sprained right ankle, Tonje made his summer league debut on Monday. And the efficient scoring that made him one of the best wings in college basketball last season was on display, with the second-round pick shooting over 50 percent from the field and 4-of-7 from beyond the arc. Utah has a lot of questions to answer regarding its young wings, which may result in Tonje receiving immediate opportunities to prove himself once training camp begins. He isn’t a must-draft player, but dynasty league managers should keep an eye on the former Wisconsin standout, especially as Cody Williams continues to struggle.
