Trey Alexander Shines in NBA Summer League Debut

Trey Alexander, formerly with Creighton, made a notable NBA Summer League debut despite the Denver Nuggets falling to the Los Angeles Clippers, 88-78. In his 26 minutes off the bench, Alexander scored 12 points, grabbed four rebounds, dished out three assists, and snagged a steal. His performance included shooting 5 of 10 from the field and 2 of 5 from beyond the arc.

Alexander, who signed a two-way deal with Denver post-June’s draft, led the second unit effectively. He showcased his versatility by running the offense and engaged in a compelling matchup against Clippers’ second-round pick, Cam Christie. His standout moment came during the second quarter, where he sparked an 8-0 Denver run with a midrange jumper and a transition three-pointer.

Denver’s Summer League journey continues against the Toronto Raptors at 8:30 p.m. on Sunday. Basketball enthusiasts eagerly anticipate how Alexander will build on his impressive debut in the upcoming game.
