Tough shooting game but the process was there.

Hopefully those shots start to fall. Great assist at the end!

Couldn’t shoot today but hes a great passer, really impressed with his vision

Nice assist for the game winner

Well they got Al for sure.

That Kings game was actually so fun, Acuff was fun to watch - even if his shot wasn’t falling as much as usual. 25pts, ⁹⁄₂₉ FG. He had some big plays in the clutch to help them come back. Game winning clutch assist in the last seconds. Acuff has style but also it’s his demeanor, he is poised and focused at all times.

I may actually like watching the Kings this year. Acuff is fun to watch

9 of 29 but Kings fans have been waiting for a player to be aggressive with their shots. They think that just because they’re in California that they’re limited to just 10 shots. Unload the drum! 

This is a Cam Thomas statline but it’s his first summer league so who gives af and his passing is far better. Acuff gonna have a bright future. Looked far more comfortable 2nd half. Kid is an offensive talent but that defense is brutal and I’m curious how he handles NBA size

I watched some trevon brazile highlights when the nuggets selected him and in half the clips the announcers were just talking about acuff, this guy is pretty good

Bad first half better in the 2nd.

He needs to adjust to the NBA 3 point line but his handle, passing, and driving/layups looked really good

Very good game other than shots not falling….. was playing slow to start pace wise. Most physical summer league game I’ve watched too lol. I think he started ¹⁄₉ and was -20 at half? Great way to close out the game.

His ability to get to the rim and self creation was great today.

Watched the whole game cause I’m a degenerate. Summer league is a snap shot of nothingness but a lot of what we expected from college was shown in this game.

excellent ball control against all pressure, good at attacking the rim. Seems fully in control when gathering a head of steam. Head up always while dribbling so can find guys rolling to the rim or coming from the baseline for baskets. Super soft touch throwing that alley oop in the third quarter. Kings will spam a lot of PnR or DHO for him.

Those 3s off the dribble looked tough for him cause the shot takes forever to go off and nba defenses are way more aggressive. They’ll need to get him more catch and shoot opportunities which were a lot of his 3s in college.

Takes a lot of off balance jumpers at the mid range when he gets stuck that are going to impact his variance from game to game.

Defense is as bad as advertised. They didn’t attack him much cause it’s the summer league but when he was defending a ball handler he’s so spastic on defense. Randomly standing up straight with both arms up at the 3 point line when the dribbling is in front of him. Multiple times did this two feet jump stop on defense to try and cut off a dribbler but each time the dribbler just went past him and he was then behind the offensive player.

Most hilarious was him directing the defense and where people should go on transition as he’s standing above the free throw line not guarding anyone but waiting for the ball handler

Better game than the shooting percentage though, pretty shifty guy

Future star

Picked up full court all game and didn’t have a single play ran for him had to play iso ball all game and got a lot of bombs at the end of the shot clock. Confident the shot will start falling but he still looked really good after the jitters went away.

He shot 44% from deep in college, this is an outlier game from deep. He’ll adjust there.

Kangs got a good one

Played better than the line. Was pretty bad first half but 2nd half he was great

He’s going to be a star. Guy can affect the game in so many ways. Has a rough shooting night, still scores 25 and leads his team down the stretch on a come back cutting to the basket and dishing the rock.

Couldn’t hit the broad side of the barn today but lead them to a win in the best summer league game I’ve ever watched. What a player

29 shots is crazy (in a good way)

That boy was chuckin I’ll tell you what

Love how he didn’t let that first half affect him. He’s gonna be a baller in the league.

Since I was watching DP in the Jazz game going on at the same time I was just box score watching this one, but Acuff started out like ¹⁄₁₀ so I’m impressed by his confidence in himself to keep shooting.

that last play is all you need to know: stayed poised, called for the ball, made the right play. Didn’t shoot well, but led the team in scoring and was enough of an offensive engine to get the W in the end

Got more shots up than minutes played.

He’s still going to be good though, I’d be ecstatic if I’m a kings fan.

If you don’t like that you don’t like kings basketball babyyyy

So on a good shooting night he’s dropping 35-40

Defense was better than expected.

Young bull had a rough first half, but I can tell he was getting more accustomed to the game in the second half

29 attempts is diabolical lol

Great first SL game. This is exactly what Kings need. I’m so glad Brooklyn passed on him 😮‍💨

⁹⁄₂₉ is diabolical. In 24 mins 😆

Barking for the ball on the last shot is so awesome

My GOAT, don’t beat those next Trae Young allegations

Was still obviously the best player on the court by a wide margin

⁹⁄₂₉ is some rough numbers against that opposition but still like the confidence.

⁹⁄₂₉. That’s rough.

Acuff Truthers Rise Up!

Certified chucker of a first game but the star potential is there.

can we interest the Kings in one slightly used De’Aaron Fox?

Future MVP

9-29 is crazy.

damn 29 shot balls of steel

29 FGA in a summer league game? Wow.

Like everything I saw. Not worried about his shooting.

Not a good shooting night but nice passing

H

Rough shooting start but you can see he finishes well through contact as multiple Nets players were hacking the sht outta him.

Any idea where was Mikel Brown?

I expect his shot to start falling, might be rust or might be variance. Either way his efficiency should be far better sooner than later.

holy shit

Hes gonna be the next trae young deadass

DA J in his debut showed DA J was not on.

Cam Thomas numbers 🔥🔥🔥

Dude is going to be trash in the nba. 9 for 29 lol

Kings found another great player that they will eventually trade.

Basically as advertised, the offense will be good, the defense might be historically bad

He picked it up for sure. But the defense was as bad as advertised. I don’t think he has the tools for it or true desire to be good on that end, and that’s a real ceiling capper. I expect the offense to be better though.

Most kings player of all time

23ppg on 40% shooting with WITL defense coming soon
