I'm Rowland-Stiles, supposed to lockdown Thunder. That's Camille Davis, supposed to lock down bucks, and together we're bringing you what all happened today on Saturday in the NBA, which was headlined by roster move. But first, we're going to talk about the NBA Summer League semifinals. Camille, these two games were polar opposites. One was very scrappy. The other one was done before it began. Let's start with the Sacramento Kings, beating the Toronto Raptors.

1:17.2

What did you make of this game that actually did have like NBA guys on the floor?

1:22.3

Yeah, this was one of those games where it was actually kind of interesting, which normally when you get to Saturday,

1:29.6

Sunday, and Summerlee, you really never know what you're going to get. But Isaac Jones for the

1:35.0

Kings was just consistently around the rim, finding a way to get an easy bucket down the stretch.

1:40.5

And then seeing like the Raptors defense really start to ramp things up for them to make it interesting in the second half really had me hoping the Raptors would actually cap off that comeback because the defense that they were playing, it was just kind of like, dang, y'all are locking up.

2:22.0

And it really sparks them to make it within a possession at the end.

2:25.7

And then they eventually, the Kings pulled back away and won the game in the end.

2:29.2

But the Raptor still hung around because of their defense.

2:32.0

And this is a team that's been thrown together for like three weeks now. And yet they got to that height. I thought that both these teams handled this summer this summer league semifinal perfectly in terms of maximizing what you get out of it. Like yes, you're going to have to play an extra game now if you're the Kings, whereas the Raptors and the Thunder and the rest of the teams get to go home after this
