Walt may get a large number of minutes tonight. Playing without Anthony Davis, the pelicans are down 20 to start the fourth. If you have NBA TV (216 on directv) then you can watch him play some garbage minutes. He isn??™t part of the normal rotation otherwise.

Gotta stop feeding the trolls.

Walt's 2nd 10-day contract expired - and by rule he was sent back and is with his G-League team again -
the only other option - that the Pelicans might sign him for the rest of the season - did not happen...Comment

the G-League hands out their awards before their season is even over - just so they get some press but don't step on the NBA media coverage as they head into the playoffs.
Anyway - since Walt Lemon played some two years ago in the G- League, he was not eligible for the G-League Rookie of the Year voting, which went to the Windy City Bulls' Antonio Blakeney- despite only playing in 32 games for the Windy City Bulls (out of 50 games).
Nor did Walt Lemon win the G-League's "Most Improved" Award - which went to one of Walt's Ft. Wayne Mad Ants teammates, DeQuan Jones....
but Walt is still considered by many to be a leading contender for the G-League MVC Award- which will be announced later this week or early next week.

In his 2nd Summer League game, Walt Lemon was the star of the game.
Walt started at point guard for the New Orleans Pelicans, tied for a game-high with 27 minutes of playing time, scored 19 points, was 7 of 11 from the field, 2 of 3 from three, 3 of 3 on FTs, had a team-leading 8 rebounds, a game-high 9 assists, 2 steals, and a team-leading 2 blocks, and he was a game-high +24 to lead the Pelicans to an easy 110-84 win over the Miami Heat.

Is Walt still on AAB TBT team? Will this affect that? I know...??¦.Priorities....Comment

no- I believe Summer League play will be over in timeComment

It could depend on whether Walt plays well enough in the Summer League to be offered an invitation to the Pelicans' training camp. If so, he may have to sign a contract that could prevent him from competing in the TBT tournament.Comment
