All right, lots of get to here. We're gonna do summer league wrap-ups. It is our goal to get to

0:06.8

over the next few episodes a

0:09.8

Wrap-up of every roster players summer leagues may not get to a lot of the two way guys

0:16.9

There are now three of them on every team

0:19.7

So if there's someone who is really notable that we'll try to give my

0:25.3

Discussion or someone who's taken in the second round this year

0:28.2

1:24.4

But you know it saves them a lot we could put it that way

1:35.7

Postseason plans this Phoenix team is extremely shallow for the regular season and I think that's the bigger issue
