League finale for the Lakers and Nuggets, Denver's Curtis Jones stuffs the stat sheet with 22 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists.

Cole Swider was one of L.A.’s biggest bright spots all summer and that continued in this one. He made his first five shots and had 14 points in the first quarter alone. He cooled off from there but still wound up with 17 points, six rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block on 6-of-15 shooting.

Boston enters at 2-1 while Los Angeles sits at 1-2 ahead of Thursday's 9 p.m. ET matchup on ESPN from Las Vegas.

Bronny James is in Vegas, but his performance Thursday night had a Hollywood ending. The second-year Lakers guard ended the first half against the Celtics with zero points before he flipped the script, scoring a game-high 18 points to go with five assists, three rebounds and a steal in the 87-78 loss in Summer League action.

Lakers fans may need to wait a bit longer to see the official ink dry, but there’s no reason to panic. Luka Doncic remains committed to both his country and his new NBA home, and all signs indicate that a contract extension is coming—it just might not happen until the summer’s spotlight dims and Slovenia wraps its Olympic campaign.

Heading into his sophomore season, Dalton Knecht was a player to keep an eye on for the Los Angeles Lakers during Summer League as teams expect second-year players to show considerable development.

Trade speculation has been running rampant since right before the start of NBA free agency, when James exercised the $52.6 million option on his contract.
