six SMU Mustangs on NBA Summer League rosters

Flashes of NBA level from Semi then I see some stuff where I'm like ????? but if he can iron it out with professional coaches then he'll make it.

Agreed, some of his iso moves are cringe-worthy. But he isn't afraid to go make a play and he will get better with time. It feels like he's a part of the Celtics' plans.

Semi's game isn't fluid. Not yet. He will be part of the rotation I think, probably 8 minutes a game off the bench. I really like how he is making his release quicker, which is throwing off his shooting percentage right now but will pay off in the end.

Sterling is going to find a way either as the first player off the bench or as a starter. Very good set shot and his blocks and length are a strong asset. Very good asset to have on the floor when teams focus heavily on the greek freak.

Sterling has looked great and the Bucks clearly believe in him. We all know he's never lacked confidence

And he had the best +/- in the game by far: http://www.nba.com/games/20170711/PHIBOS#/boxscore

What's the definition of +/- ?

What's the definition of +/- ?

Plus−minus (+/−, ±, plus/minus) is a sports statistic used to measure a player's impact on the game, represented by the difference between their team's total scoring versus their opponent's when the player is in the game.

I thought this was a hockey stat - Never considered it for basketball - especially the NBA since no one plays defense -

Sterling and the Bucks play at 7:30 on ESPN2.

Sterling is doing it all. He is playing really well.

They had Sterling playing point in the 4Q.

Sucks they lost. Sterling was getting no help. I believe they still get one more game.
