Patrick O'Bryant in NBA Summer League

Last night's NBA Summer League games...

-Bryan Mullins got into the Bulls' 80-74 win for just a short time but had no pts nor assists.

-Shaun Livingston was held out

-Indiana State's David Moss had 10 pts, 3 rebs, and 8 fouls

-Blake Ahearn 10 min, 9 pts, 3 rebs
 
It also appears he only had 16 fouls in 147 minutes. Which would be about 3 fouls per 30 minutes of game time. Although that was the highest on the team and tied with 2 others at 16. I'm wondering if it was really higher but they capped it at 16. Not to shabby though.

It's great to be excited for a former BU player, but those are summer league numbers and don't transfer into the NBA any more than NBA2k10 number would. Reports from summer league that I've read about him say that he's mainly taking outside jumpers and not rebounding or playing defense well, which is what Toronto really needs out of a center. The signing of Rasho pretty much eliminates POB from any meaningful playing time, and he may be bought out.

However, centers can stay in the league forever. It does sound like POB has progressed as a player, but idk if he'll be in Toronto all of next year.
 
reportedly POB is signed with Toronto at near the minimum, which makes him economically, a steal...to have a backup center for that price...so word is he will likely stay there, but time will tell.
