Randy’s Pick

The Oklahoma City Thunder are going to be favored more times than not in these summer league games because of the endless supply of young talent, but they're on the end of a back to back, so it's going to be interesting to see who plays. The Indiana Pacers have the rest advantage, and they've been rather impressive in their first couple of games. Should be a good one. I lean Pacers and the free bucket.
