Press release:
NEW YORK – Twenty-two NBA teams, including 11 that
appeared in the 2010 NBA Playoffs, will compete in this year’s NBA Summer

Select players will also participate in the action taking place at the
Thomas & Mack Center and the COX Pavilion on the campus of the University
of Nevada Las Vegas. Marketing partners included in the event are adidas,
EA SPORTS, Gatorade and T-Mobile.

“While the NBA Summer League continues to grow, its core mission remains
the same: allowing NBA teams to evaluate young talent and free agents,
giving rookies the chance to get acclimated to the NBA and providing
veterans a chance to fine-tune their games,” said Stu Jackson, Executive
Vice President of NBA Basketball Operations.

Additionally, 10 of the top 14 picks are expected to participate in Las
Vegas this summer.
“NBA fans have the chance to get a sneak peek at the league’s newest stars
in an up close and family-friendly venue at NBA Summer League,” said Gail
Hunter, NBA Senior Vice President of Events and Attractions.
Joining the above-mentioned teams scheduled to appear in Vegas this summer
