After his 23 points and his winning shot against Brooklyn in the semifinals, Isaiah Mobley confirmed in the final, compiling 28 points and 11 rebounds to allow Cleveland to win quietly (99-78) against Houston.
Helped by Sam Merrill (27 points) and Emoni Bates (19 points), Evan’s brother led the Cavaliers to their first Summer League title since the summer league went into tournament mode in 2013.
Opposite, Nate Hinton compiled 18 points and 10 rebounds while Cam Whitmore, tournament MVP, was clumsy, finishing the game with 14 points at 6/17 shooting success…
Selected in the second round of the Draft in 2022, Isaiah Mobley was not chosen in one of the two best teams in the Summer League, and this performance in the final is therefore a response from him.
“I try not to worry about the things I can’t control” he replied. “Did I agree? No, but that’s how it is. I prefer to win the title. »
It remains to be seen whether these performances will allow him to really integrate the rotation of JB Bickerstaff next season, while he had to be satisfied with very brief appearances in the first team during his rookie season.
