The Indiana Summer Pacers take on the Orlando Summer Magic at 3:00PM today in their first game at the Orlando Summer League.
Rookie draft picks Paul George, Lance Stephenson and Magnum Rolle have attracted most of the attention so far in camp and I certainly look forward to seeing how they play today, even though, and get used to this statement...it's just summer league.
Also looking forward to seeing French PG, Thomas Heurtel and of course Josh McRoberts. Don't forget Purdue's Chris Kramer will also be on the roster in Orlando. His time may be limited but at least he made it out of camp.
Here's the schedule for today's games in Orlando which tips off with Charlotte playing Utah including Butler's Gordon Hayward running with the Jazz.
