Hugo González (12 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast) is on triple-double watch as the Celtics take a 39-28 lead over the Kings into the half in the Thomas & Mack Center.
His playmaking has seemingly taken a leap forward this summer, both in FIBA World Cup qualifying and the Summer League, where he’s been on-ball most of the time.

JULY 15 / 6:51 p.m. ET
Okorie covers ground
A big shot for Ebuka Okorie (8 pts, 2 ast), the 6-foot guard out of Stanford.
He was 2-for-12 from 3-point range entering today’s game, but shot 35.9% from deep in college last season. To be successful as a small guard, it’s important to be able to make the defender play up tight.
51-46 Suns as the half winds down.
JULY 15 / 6:00 p.m. ET

‘A Slawson slice’
Jalen Slawson (20 pts, 9 reb, 3 ast, 4 blk) just stormed down the lane for a one-handed slam to cut the Timberwolves’ lead to 95-85 with 4:42 to go in the game.
“This is just nasty,” said Prime’s Brendan Glasheen.
“Do not get in the way,” said Prime’s Teresa Weatherspoon.
He’s been the Pacers’ best player this summer, showing length and slashing ability at 6-foot-7, including this block earlier.
JULY 15 / 4:26 p.m. ET
A poster to end the half
Jaylin Williams (2 pts, 3 reb) just capped a strong first half for the Timberwolves with a steal and slam, sending them into the break with a 62-51 lead.
“We’ve just got to get better on defense. I think we can score, no issue,” said Trey Kaufman-Renn (10 pts).
Kaufman-Renn said it’s a “weird experience” to play against Braden Smith (5 pts, 2 reb, 3 ast), his former Purdue teammate, but “a lot of fun.”
Minnesota’s shooting 52.8% from the field at the break, earning a 28-20 lead in points in the paint.
Yuki Kawamura also dropped this slick dime to Jalen Slawson (10 pts, 4 blk).
JULY 15 / 4:19 p.m. ET
Richardson rocking
Jase Richardson (10 pts on 4-for-5 shooting, 2 3PM) has it flowing to open Magic-76ers in a battle of two of his father’s former teams.
Richardson posted a career-high of 20 points in his rookie season, scoring it on Jan. 6 against the Washington Wizards. He’s a quick guard with vertical pop at 6-foot-1.
JULY 15 / 3:59 p.m. ET
Powering to the rim
Jalen Slawson (8 pts, 2 blk) and No. 58 pick Trey Kaufman-Renn (8 pts, 1 reb) are leading the scoring as the Timberwolves take a 35-27 lead over the Pacers after the first.
We had 11 lead changes and two ties in the first quarter in this competitive battle.
“This is really good to see the pace we’ve been having,” said Prime’s Teresa Weatherspoon. “This is good. Keep it going!”
Braden Smith (5 pts, 2 ast) likes this shot fading to the baseline — it’s tough, but is a good weapon for a 6-foot guard as he adjusts to pro size and length.
JULY 15 / 3:50 p.m. ET
Magic–76ers about to tip on ESPNU
Some good matchups in this one.
In the backcourt, the Magic boast Jase Richardson, the No. 25 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, facing the 76ers’ No. 22 pick Labaron Philon.
In the frontcourt, Noah Penda, the No. 32 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, has been big for Orlando, and will matchup with Johni Broome, the No. 35 pick in 2025, who has been one of the main stars for Philly.
JULY 15 / 3:45 p.m. ET
Raining from deep early
The Pacers and Wolves are a combined 7-for-11 (63.6%) from 3-point range to open this contest — we’ve had some free-flowing offense to open this run in the Pavilion.
Indiana’s started to press, seeking to add some defensive balance.
20-19 Pacers with 4:11 to go in the first.
JULY 15 / 3:30 p.m. ET
It’s a battle of intriguing guard prospects, as No. 38 pick Braden Smith, the NCAA men’s basketball all-time assist leader, faces Zyon Pullin and No. 33 pick Isaiah Evans.
Jalen Slawson, a 6-foot-7 forward out of Furman, has been a force for Indiana in recent games, playing off Smith and the spacing around him. Keep an eye on him here.
