## Resource

Caleb Wilson exploded in the Summer League, averaging nearly 24 points with improved shooting and a surge in three-point attempts—showing serious upside despite a dip in his assist-to-turnover ratio. Meanwhile, Dailyn Swain struggled mightily, shooting just over 12% from the field even off the ball, raising questions about his long-term development. Noa Essengue, once a starter, has fallen out of favor with the new front office, playing sparingly and picking up seven fouls in limited minutes—possibly due to a “not our guy” bias or simply being unready for NBA demands. With Essengue likely headed back to the G-League for his sophomore season, Jaylin Sellers and Tobe Awaka on two-way deals offer contrast, especially with Sellers’ age and productivity. Wilson looks poised for a breakout, while Swain and Essengue face uncertain futures—Summer League glimpses are just the start; the real test begins when the regular season rolls around.
