Summer League, Wizards and NBA

Philadelphia 76ers rookie guard VJ Edgecombe edged out Dallas Mavericks rookie forward Cooper Flagg at halftime in NBA Summer League.
While Flagg looked good with the ball in his hands, he looked better playing off it, and that will be more of his role in Dallas where D’Angelo Russell in the short term and Kyrie Irving long term (once healthy), not to mention Anthony Davis, will facilitate the offense most of the time.
Edgecombe has missed the Sixers' last three summer league games with a thumb injury, but he has been moving through the Las Vegas trip alongside the rehabbing McCain.
