Added to Calendar: 07-16-25

Flip hasn't needed to play in Summer League after Salt Lake City, but the team completely falls apart without him. So in the interest of giving the other guys a meaningful experience, Flip needs to play.
 
Honestly, why? Why shutdown Brice and Flip? Brice was getting DNP late into the season even. The Utah Jazz are now shutting down 8th, 9th, 10th guys down the bench. What they're pretty much saying is, only go to the first 1-2 games of Summer League and then there's no point in watching.

Collier has been pretty bad.
Cody has been up and down. It's sad when we have to get excited when he makes 1 play at the basket.
Flip has been fun to watch but plays negative defense.
Walter was fun to watch
Ace was fun to watch
Brice is exactly the same. He can shoot but don't you dare ask him to playmake or dribble the ball.

2 of these players will start. Keyonte is probably first off the bench. So we are literally talking about 7, 8, 9, and then Tonje at best or DNPs players that are getting shutdown. Let the kids play. If Dylan can go out there and play, if VJ can come back and play, let our players play.

Why? They want to get a good look at other guys. Brice and Flip aren't the only players needing to be evaluated. As much as everyone wants to ignore it, there are other guys on the summer league team other than our 1st round draft picks (and early 2nd in Flips case). Everyone might have written them off, but they should also get a fair chance to show their stuff.
