Former Laker will play for Nets in summer league
The Los Angeles Lakers lost their first game of the California Classic on Saturday, 89-84, to the Golden State Warriors. While multiple players struggled for them, forward Cole Swider shot 7-of-10 from the field and 6-of-8 from 3-point range to score 24 points. It was expected in recent weeks that guard Quincy Olivari, who showed promise this past season as a rookie in the preseason and G League, would be a member of the Lakers' summer league squad. He said recently in an interview that he would take part in summer league play, but he wasn't listed on their summer league roster. Advertisement Instead, he will play for the Brooklyn Nets' summer league squad. Olivari earned the love and respect of Lakers fans last fall during the preseason by helping to spearhead a comeback victory against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was rewarded with a two-way contract just after the preseason ended, and he had a number of strong performances as a member of the G League's South Bay Lakers.

On Saturday, the Los Angeles Lakers will begin summer league play by participating in the California Classic. Their first game will take place that afternoon versus the Golden State Warriors, and after two more contests, they will move on to the NBA's main summer league in Las Vegas, which will begin play on July 10. Incoming second-year guards Bronny James and Quincy Olivari will take part in summer league play for the Lakers, as will Dalton Knecht, a sharpshooting wing who had a promising rookie season. Their full summer league roster has been announced, and it will include a couple of other intriguing players. Center Trey Jemison III, who played some games with L.A. on a two-way contract this past season, will participate in summer league. So will Cole Swider, a sharpshooting forward who has been with the franchise's summer league squad in the recent past. Advertisement Multiple undrafted free agents will also take part, including forward Eric Dixon, whom the Lakers signed to a two-way contract. One noticeable omission is Adou Thiero, who was the No. 36 pick in last week's draft and was shipped to L.A. in a trade. He's still recovering from a knee injury he suffered a few months ago while playing for the University of Arkansas.
