Jazz's Trey Lyles: Shines in summer league play

Lyles averaged 23.8 points, 9.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 32.0 minutes per game over five summer league appearances.

Analysis:

Lyles was unquestionably the Jazz's top player throughout summer league play, which was unsurprising given that he had the most NBA experience of any player on the roster. The 6-foot-10 forward connected on 15-of-33 (47%) of his three-point attempts and reached at least 20 points in all but one contest. With his dominating performance, it's reasonable to expect Lyles to make some further strides after a promising rookie season, but the ceiling for his production remains a bit limited if both Derrick Favors and Rudy Gobert are able to stay relatively healthy in 2016-17.
