Because of the Covid-19, the rookies for the 2020/21 season have not rehearsed their ranges during the traditional Summer Leagues. But their successors will have the opportunity to show their talents during the summer.
A few days before the traditional Las Vegas Summer League organized from August 8 to 17, Sacramento and Salt Lake City will organize a few exhibition meetings.
In the Californian capital, the Lakers, the Heat, the Warriors and therefore the Kings will cross swords over two days. Each team will play a first meeting on August 3 before continuing with a second match on August 4. The Lakers will face the Heat and then the Kings while the Warriors will face the latter on the first day before facing Miami the next day.
An event that will take place for the third time in Sacramento, in a Golden One Center free at the level of the fill rate, as indicated by the president and owner of the Kings Vivek Ranadive on the NBA website.
On the Salt Lake City side, the tournament will begin on August 3 and end on the 6th. Four teams are called up on Utah land: the Grizzlies, the Spurs and two formations which will represent the Jazz with the Jazz White and the Jazz Blue. All teams will play once during this time.
