The Drew League, widely-regarded as the best "pro-am" league in the country, takes place in Los Angeles every summer. Some NBA players play to stay in shape and get in some game action during the offseason. Players in recent years have included Paul George, Brandon Jennings and Kevin Durant. Daye's 52 points came on just 25 shots and included 8 made threes. "I was just trying to be aggressive...put pressure on the defense," he said in a postgame interview. Daye said he averages 35 points per game in the Drew League, but his Sunday output was a season-high for the entire league. "My friends, we all have a group chat. We had a bet going that I would get 50," he said. Daye has played in the Drew League each of the past 5 years, including going head-to-head against Durant in 2013 and earning Player of the Week honors in 2012. He noted that he played alongside Jennings and Jordan Hamilton last summer, so he didn't get as many shots. "My thing is being able to work on my game and take shots that I'll take in games." Listen to his full postgame interview here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomFan Posted July 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Dang....that's more than double the points Stanley Johnson ever scored in his college career. Then we should trade him for Johnson. They would do that trade, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedDawg#8 Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 If he can play SF I say hang on to him. He openly speaks about being coached to defend positions 2-4 with emphasis on the frontcourt. He is long but looks slow due his lanky frame. But he does have some ball handling ability ala Millsap with a slower first step despite less weight to carry. He can create for himself though to go along with his excellent shooting form so maybe with all that in mind he sticks around as insurance.

Premium Member aali34 Posted July 7, 2015 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Daye is complete trash. Every spurs fan is happy they cut him. Cant guard wings cause he is too slow, cant guard bigs cause he is too thin. Can only shoot three's. He is like a tall version of john Jenkins with no handles.
