It is Andrew Nembhard himself who confirmed it on Monday: his Summer League in Les Vegas is already over after only two games.
Not a big surprise as the leader of the Pacers has little to prove to his club in the summer league this month, after a campaign rookie very well made in Indiana.
His place already well assured in the rotation of Rick Carlisle, the Canadian therefore plays liberated, and has displayed a level of play and mastery very well above the competition in recent days: 14 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists against Washington , then 21 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals against Orlando.
” He played very well. It brings a significant degree of serenity, ball in hand “appreciated Jannero Pargo, the coach of the Pacers in the Summer League. ” He does the right reading, organizes us in attack. »
Holder 63 times last season as a rookie, but rather as a second back alongside Tyrese Haliburton (and as a leader when the latter was injured), Andrew Nembhard has effectively regained his natural role as conductor of the attack with the summer troop, and played his game without forcing.
” It’s always good to repeat your scales, to multiply the phases of ‘pick-and-roll’ », judged the 23-year-old point guard, officially too good for the Summer League. ” The only way to progress is to play. It’s the best choice, rather than training on my side all summer. »
