The NBA Summer League has already kicked off with the Orlando and Utah competitions underway. The biggest summer league competition will take place in Las Vegas, starting on Friday, and will feature a couple of recent Zags. Here’s who you can watch to satisfy your basketball fever during the summer doldrums.

Sunday, 7/10/16, 4:00pm ET - Atlanta Hawks v. Washington Wizards
Monday, 7/11/16, 4:30pm ET - Brooklyn Nets v. Atlanta Hawks

*Upon the conclusion of the preliminary schedule (i.e., the first three games on each team’s schedule), each team entry in the Vegas Summer League will be seeded in a tournament-style circuit that will determine a league final to be played on July 18. Every team will play at least five games. ESPN will air every game across its ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3, ESPNU, and WatchESPN affiliates, so you will definitely have a chance to see Wiltjer and Pangos in action if you have access to those platforms. NBATV will also air 30 of the 67 games scheduled to be played during the Vegas Summer League.
