The Las Vegas Summer League just keeps upping the ante.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal's Mark Anderson reports that an announced record crowd of 131,293 people has attended the league's most prominent summer circuit through 11 days so far, breaking last year's mark of 127,843.
This year's figure stands to increase, as the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers are set to do battle in the summer league championship game on Tuesday. With Las Vegas just a four-hour drive from downtown L.A. - or a two-hour flight from Portland - it should be a full house at the Thomas & Mack Center when the final game tips off at 10:00 p.m. ET.
