Scottie Pippen Jr. showed out in his first game.
Scottie Pippen Jr was impressive in college, although this did not translate into being drafted. Considering his name, there were always going to be lofty expectations placed upon Pippen Jr. and he certainly caught the attention of a few teams once he became an undrafted free agent. In the end, the Los Angeles Lakers scooped him up and they have since placed him on their Summer League squad.
On Sunday night, Pippen Jr. got to make his Summer Leauge debut, and there is no doubt that he made a pretty massive impression. He ended up scoring 15 points, 8 assists, and he even notched three steals in what was a pretty dominant performance.
