HOLY CRAP, NBA Summer League starts tonight.

No, not the gigantic event in Las Vegas, we’ve got a few days before that. I’m talking about the six team California Classic in Sacramento. I don’t know why the league has this existing, I’ve never heard a good reason why. If you know, please pipe up in the comments.

In any case, Jamal Cain’s Miami Heat and Jayce Johnson’s Golden State Warriors are both taking part, so there’s Marquette-related basketball to watch today and on Wednesday before the official Summer League starts in earnest. When things shift to Las Vegas, we’ll be keeping an eye on not only Olivier-Maxence Prosper and the Dallas Mavericks, but also the Chicago Bulls, as Justin Lewis is listed on the roster there.

Speaking of rosters, NBA.com has nine teams that do not have a roster posted as of Monday afternoon. It’s possible that there will be another Marquette name filtering in there, I suppose, that’s another 90-ish guys being added to the fray. We’ll update this schedule as needed if someone else will be getting on the court in Sin City.

UPDATE! Thanks to the MU athletic department for getting out ahead of things and providing us with this very handy graphic to point out the guys that we missed.
