Summer League games

The summer league games were interesting to attend. I have been to a lot of season games and the open practices during training camp but this was a lot different. I was probably one of the very few in the building that came to see Reese Gaines play. Our new rookie did a pretty decent job handling the ball. Outside of counting the points and assists, I saw a couple things that really impressed me. The first, he was looking to get everyone involved. In some instances, he looked for someone else when I think he could have penetrated and dished out. This leads to the second thing that impressed me. Gaines has some impressive moves and great ball handling skills. Even though this was the summer league game, I thought he did an excellent job and keeping his dribble alive when he was bumped working the ball around the floor. I will save my thoughts on his driving skills until I get to see more of him, but he has a lot of quickness and he can play short or tall at the point guard position.
