Memphis Grizzlies rookie Cameron Boozer earns All‑Summer League first‑team honors
Memphis Grizzlies rookie Cameron Boozer, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft out of Duke, was named to the NBA Summer League All‑First Team after posting 19 points, eight rebounds and four assists in the championship game, which the Grizzlies lost to the Golden State Warriors. His strong performances across eight Summer League games have positioned him as a potential cornerstone for a franchise that is rebuilding following the trade of star guard Ja Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers.
In the same offseason, point guard Scotty Pippen Jr. secured a four‑year, $9.6 million contract with Memphis after a breakout G‑League season and a 2024‑25 campaign in which he averaged 12.9 points, 4.7 assists and 1.7 steals per game. The Grizzlies are counting on both Boozer’s front‑court impact and Pippen’s guard play to shape their new core.
