Reggie Jackson scored 14 points and provided this highlight dunk to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to an 89-75 win over the Utah Jazz in the final day of the Orlando Summer League. The Thunder finished the week with a 3-2 record.

Jackson looked the best of all the Thunder players this week not only showing off his athleticism on plays like this but also looking a lot more confident than he did during the regular season for the Thunder.

Jackson averaged 15.3 points and 3.5 assists per game in the four Summer League games that he played in for the Thunder. He is more of a scoring point guard than a distributor but is a very good athlete for his position and has a lot of potential on defense.

Perry Jones played in just the first two Summer League games for the Thunder before sitting out the remainder of the week with a sprained ankle. Jones impressed especially in the first game and averaged 12.0 points and 6.0 rebounds per game and showed a ton of potential.

Cole Aldrich had high expectations coming into this week and simply did not deliver. He averaged just 5.0 points and 6.5 rebounds per game in four games. His offense was shaky and his defense was nothing special either.

Aldrich is likely to assume the backup center role with Nazr Mohammed out the door but if he doesn’t improve soon, Jones or the newly signed free agent Hasheem Thabeet could get a chance in that role.

Lazar Hayward was probably the most consistent player for the Thunder this week but won’t get a lot of attention mainly because his game that he showed this week will not translate too well to the NBA. He averaged 15.8 points and 6.0 rebounds per game though and will be a solid player to have at the end of the bench.

The Las Vegas Summer League begins today and will run all the way through Sunday, July 22.

Rookie Perry Jones did not play for the Thunder. He sprained his ankle in the Thunder’s second Summer League game on Tuesday and will not play the rest of the week.

Reggie Jackson led the Thunder with 15 points, five assists and seven rebounds. Jackson continues to look good in these games and has been most impressive with his ability to finish at the rim.

Lazar Hayward had another nice showing scoring 15 points. Garrett Temple also scored 15 points and made two threes.

Cole Aldrich had his best game of the week so far although still has been struggling overall. Aldrich scored 10 points and had seven rebounds but still gets pushed around a little too much and has worse hands then you’d expect.

The No. 9 overall pick from the 2012 NBA Draft, Andre Drummond, scored 10 points and had nine rebounds for the Pistons. Drummond is an incredible specimen on a basketball court and looks to have near-Dwight Howard potential in terms of athleticism.

The Thunder will play again tomorrow vs. the Brooklyn Nets at 1 p.m. EST.

The injury was far from severe and the Thunder have no reason to risk any further injury for Jones by playing him in these games.

Jones was impressive in the two games for the Thunder this week. He scored 16 point and had eight rebounds on Monday then had eight points and four rebounds Tuesday.

Jones already has an elite NBA body and could crack the Thunder rotation this season as a rookie. He is 6-foot-11 and most comfortable playing the stretch-four position. He’s is athletic and strong enough to get a good amount of rebounds though and play defense inside.

Jones showed some range with a couple of nice jumpers this week and also showed a great ability to take his man off the dribble and finish on drives.

His potential is extremely high and he won’t need to reach it with the Thunder next season. He can certainly come in and contribute though and give the Thunder a little something they didn’t have before.

Perry Jones who was very impressive in the first Summer League game was less so today scoring eight points to go with four rebounds and left the game late in the fourth after tweaking his ankle. The injury didn’t look to serious and expect Jones to be fine for the rest of the week.

Lazar Hayward played the best for the Thunder scoring 15 points to go with eight rebounds while Reggie Jackson chipped in with 13 points.

Latavious Williams had a nice showing with 10 points and nine rebounds off the bench.

Lance Stephenson led the Pacers with 28 points and seven assists and really dominated the game. He and Jackson were going back and forth some in the game with Stephenson obviously getting the better of him.

While Jones really looked great in the game yesterday, today was not as impressive but still solid for him. Whenever he scores, they are good moves taking his man off the dribble and finishing strong. He definitely likes to spot-up for that midrange jumpers a lot and you could see him developing a nice shot from there.

Hayward has been nice in both games so far in the Summer League but you don’t take him too serious. He’s just too short and his game will not translate well enough to the NBA where he could be effective with the Thunder. He’s not a bad guy to have as your 12th man though and seems to be a real professional.

Jackson again gave us flashes of his potential. He looks a lot better when he doesn’t defer and the offense goes through him. Obviously that will never really be the case for him in OKC but if he gets more comfortable he could definitely be a solid contributor off the bench.

Cole Aldrich was relatively quiet again. He scored five points, had six rebounds and committed seven fouls. Any excitement with Aldrich possibly stepping up this coming season and being a reliable bench player is going away when he plays like this. He still of course has the chance to become a nice backup center for the Thunder but he’s really just nothing too special.

The Thunder will play again tomorrow at 1 p.m. EST vs. Detroit. Hasheem Thabeet could play in the game if he signs with the Thunder tomorrow morning.

The Thunder lost 73-65 to the Boston Celtics but the final scores of these games don’t really matter.

Reggie Jackson also played well for the Thunder scoring 19 points to go with two assists and Lazar Hayward added 18 points and nine rebounds.

Jared Sullinger led the Celtics with 20 points and six rebounds.

Summer league games are only 40 minutes long and feel a lot like scrimmages. Players can’t foul out and most of the players are trying to make an NBA team so there is a lot of extra effort on every play. It’s not the calm, under controlled game we’re used to watching in the NBA.

Jones stood out from the start simply by his physical presence. He is listed at 6-foot-11 and 235 pounds with a 7-foot-2 inch wingspan.

The first thing you notice with Jones is how well he moves for his size. A lot of players are described in the way Jones is as having “all of the tools” to play in the NBA but when you watch them play you can still notice something wrong with them.

That isn’t the case with Jones at all. He is very fluid and runs the floor like a three. He didn’t get pushed around either although it is clear he is much more comfortable on the perimeter as a stretch-four type.

His first bucket was a follow-up putback at the rim then he scored next taking a big man off the dribble, going between his legs and finishing an and-one layup.

Jones settled for a lot of spot-up jumpers from midrange. The Thunder used him in a lot of pick-and-rolls mostly as a pick-and-pop man with Cole Aldrich being the roller most times. He hit a few jumpers including a three and drove to the rim nicely a few times as well.

His game reminds you a little of Earl Clark or Rashard Lewis with less range. He is a great athlete and should be able to defend will immediately in the NBA. He’s not going to love banging down low for boards but still comes up with some simply from his athletic prowess.

He looked great in this first game and Thunder fans should be excited for him. It could have been a lot worse. He could have looked more unassertive and less skilled but that wasn’t the case at all. Once he is plugged into the Thunder’s rotation and has been with the team for awhile, he should fit in very nicely.

The only other player who really looked good for OKC was Jackson. Jackson was thrust into the rotation last season after Eric Maynor tore his ACL and wasn’t very memorable in his rookie campaign.

Jackson is a very good athlete though and has some NBA skills that will clearly allow him to play in the league for awhile. He is not the best decision-maker yet but looked more decisive in this type of atmosphere as he did not have to defer at all.

Jackson’s arms are so long too and it makes you feel like he could really turn into a great defender who gets a lot of steals like a Mario Chalmers. He also is a pretty good finisher inside with a euro-step and can elevate when he needs to as well.

Jackson is not a great point guard yet though. He only had two assists and rarely makes a great pass. Once he gets more comfortable and improves in that area he could prove to be of some value for the Thunder going forward.

Cole Aldrich was maybe the biggest name Thunder fans hoped would impress in these Summer League games. He definitely didn’t in this first one scoring one point, going 0-for-4 from the field and grabbing seven boards.

The first thing you notice with Aldrich is that he does seem like he needs to get in the weight room more. He doesn’t hold his ground well enough yet on offense or defense.

He does possess good instincts and in the Thunder’s second unit as the backup center could produce some but he still feels pretty far away from much of anything. The Celtics didn’t have a lot of competition out there fOR him and you’re just waiting for Aldrich to step up and he didn’t.

Perhaps this type of less-controlled setting doesn’t suit Aldrich too well. Players don’t care about going over the back or banging over-aggressively since they can’t foul out and maybe that’s why it looked like Aldrich got pushed around.

Aldrich shouldn’t be much of a drop off from Nazr Mohammed as the backup center for OKC next season but after watching this game (and I know it’s only one Summer League game), Perry Jones looks so much better and it will be frustrating if Aldrich gets significantly more minutes than him next season, although understandable and probably expected.

The Thunder will continue to play Summer League games in Orlando the rest of the week. Hasheem Thabeet can sign with the Thunder as early as Wednesday which means he could play in a few games starting then.

The Thunder will play the Indiana Pacers tomorrow afternoon at 1 p.m. EST. The game will be televised on NBATV.

Here is the official roster for the Thunder in the Summer League via The Oklahoman:

The first look at rookie Jones III will be much anticipated. Jones III had lottery-level talent heading into the NBA Draft and slipped all the way to pick No. 28 for the Thunder. Jones III may really shine in these types of “showcase” games in Vegas.
