Race to the MVP - Overall Player Rankings

1. Marco Belinelli, Warriors
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
25.0 2.0 2.3 1.7 0.0 .500
The sweet-shooting swingman is the league’s third leading scorer and his Warriors have also won two of three games.

2. Louis Wiliams, Sixers
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
25.2 5.4 5.0 1.6 0.0 .485
It is tough to argue against Williams, who was a stat-sheet stuffer for Philadelphia, which ended the tournament with a 3-2 mark.

3. Rodney Stuckey, Pistons
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
19.3 4.0 2.7 1.7 0.0 .487
Detroit has played three games and when the final horn sounded in each, they walked off the court as winners. Stuckey has been better than advertised.

4. Jose Juan Barea, Mavericks
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
16.3 2.3 4.7 0.7 0.0 .567
He has been a pest to all three teams that Dallas has played -- and defeated -- so far in the summer league. The assist numbers are expected, but the points are a pleasant surprise.

5. Craig Smith, Timberwolves
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
23.0 5.5 1.0 0.5 2.0 .636
The powerful forward has emerged as Minnesota’s go-to player. He has been virtually unstoppable in the paint.

6. Jason Maxiell, Pistons
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
19.0 6.3 1.0 0.3 1.3 .553
Stuckey has been the man for Detroit on the perimeter, while Maxiell has handled all of the dirty work in the paint.

7. Kelenna Azubuike, Warriors
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
21.0 6.0 2.5 0.5 0.0 .467
I had Azubuike’s teammate, Pierre Pierce, penciled in at this spot until I took a closer look at the numbers. Azubuike has been outstanding.

8. Alando Tucker, Suns
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
21.0 2.0 3.0 0.0 0.0 .536
Judging by what I’ve seen in two games, Tucker would be a legit Rookie of the Year candidate on any other team. Unfortunately, he won’t get enough burn on the Suns to win it during the regular season.

9. Rudy Gay, Grizzlies
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
16.0 8.5 2.0 2.0 0.0 .370
In his summer league debut, he was the best player on the floor. In Memphis' second game, he made up for a subpar shooting performance by grabbing 11 rebounds.

10. Francisco Garcia, Kings
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
20.5 3.0 3.5 1.5 0.5 .429
Life is good for Garcia. He is putting up quality stats and the Kings are winning games.

11. Al Thornton, Clippers
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
20.5 7.5 1.0 0.0 1.0 .387
I know the Clippers are winless but don’t blame Thornton who has shouldered the load.

12. Leon Powe, Celtics
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
16.3 8.7 0.7 0.3 0.0 .615
He did his thing in two games and the Celtics got W’s; he was so-so in their other outing and Boston got a L.

13. Rodney Carney, Sixers
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
17.6 2.6 1.0 0.6 1.0 .431
On the east coast, Philadelphia fans are jumping for joy over the play of Williams and Carney, who was a force over the final three games.

14. LaMarcus Aldridge, Blazers
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
21.1 11.0 0.5 0.0 3.0 .586
His numbers merit him being higher on the list. The fact that he missed one game because of injury and Portland was winless with him in the lineup means he doesn’t.

15. Jelani McCoy, Nuggets
PPG RPG APG SPG BPG FG%
13.0 13.0 1.0 0.5 2.5 .923
Don’t look now but the rugged McCoy is leading the league in rebounds while averaging a double-double. He has made 12-of-13 shots from the field.

Close But No Cigar (summer league averages)
16. Pierre Pierce (Warriors): 18.3 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 3.3 APG
17. Aaron Brooks (Rockets): 21.0 PPG, 1.0 RPG, 8.0 APG
18. Marcus Banks (Suns): 42.0 PPG, 6.0 RPG, 3.0 APG
19. Shannon Brown (Cavaliers): 19.7 PPG, 1.3 RPG, 3.3 APG
20. Wang Zhizhi (Team China): 17.4 PPG, 6.0 RPG, 1.0 APG

Running the Floor

Oden
Before the start of the NBA Summer League, if I would have said I was putting together a list ranking the players in Las Vegas and that Portland’s Greg Oden and Seattle’s Kevin Durant wouldn’t be on it, you would have thought I was crazy. After checking out the order of my selections, there is a chance that you may still feel that way.
Team China Basketball finished the summer league with a record of 1-4, while the Sixers went 3-2 before heading off to the Utah. The Rocky Mountain Revue is scheduled to be held from July 13-20 with the Hawks, Bulls, Mavs, Sixers, Spurs, Sonics and Jazz participating.
