PHX vs LAL Dream 11 Prediction
The Summer League is about finding fits and most players auditioning for a roster spot to further their professional basketball career. Usually, rookies who are fresh from the NBA draft get a chance to be the ace players of the team, and thus, there is a lot of young and fresh talent on display. However, it is not like that some NBA regulars don’t feature in the competition, as there are players who look to train through the League and several others who like to regain their footing in the league. While the Lakers signed the Internet sensation and well-known dunker Mac McClung in a training camp deal, the Suns’ squad is full of professionals both from the NBA and overseas. It will be an interesting battle between the two squads.

1. Devontae Cacok
Points: 13
Rebounds: 06
