Wisconsin Badgers 2022 NBA Summer League Recap
Five former Badgers showcased their talents in the NBA summer league; let's see how they fared:
The University of Wisconsin has only two players signed to guaranteed NBA contracts entering the 2022 season, Frank Kaminsky and lottery pick Johnny Davis, who was the first player selected during the Greg Gard era.
However, this summer, former Badgers Vitto Brown, Nate Reuvers, Micah Potter, and Aleem Ford also had a chance to showcase their talents in front of NBA scouting personnel in Las Vegas.
Summer league offers a little something for everyone who partakes. For rookies, it's their first chance to get a taste of the next level. For other young players, it's an opportunity to show their growth from one year to the next. For journeymen that have scratched and clawed their way to be in Las Vegas, it's a last-ditch effort to make the leap from overseas to the association.
