Jackson Gatlin (@Locked On Rockets) is joined by Jeff Garcia (@Locked On Spurs) to discuss Victor Wembanyama’s much anticipated San Antonio Spurs debut, how different he looked from Game 1 against the Hornets to Game 2 against the Blazers, and how he’s handling expectations so far. Why did Victor struggle so much in the Spurs first Summer League game? How did he turn things around in in Game 2? How impactful has has Wemby been defensively? How is he handling the lofty expectations so far?


Then, Ku Khahil (@Locked On Pistons) stops by to talk about the Detroit Pistons stacked Summer League roster, including rookies Ausar Thompson & Marcus Sasser, as well as returning players Jaden Ivey, Jalen Duren, and James Wiseman. What has Ausar's role looked like for the Pistons SL squad so far? Should he be getting more on-ball reps? What is the goal in bringing back second-year guys like Ivey & Duren (or 4th year Wiseman) for the Pistons? How has Sasser meshed with Ivey/Ausar and what are his expectations?


Lastly, Jackson (@Locked On Rockets) breaks down Scoot Henderson vs. Amen Thompson in their Summer League debuts before both leaving early due to injury + Jabari Smith Jr. turning the corner as the leading SL scorer through two games. What did Scoot & Amen look like going head-to-head? How did Amen handle running Houston's offense? What's different for Jabari compared to this time last year? How is Jabari scoring so effectively?
