Magic second-round pick Izaiyah Nelson will make his Las Vegas Summer League debut July 9 at 7:30 p.m. against the Charlotte Hornets at Cox Pavilion on the campus of UNLV.
The NBA announced the full summer league schedule Friday afternoon and all 30 teams will play at least five games with the first four taking place July 9-16. All games will be available to watch on Prime Video or ESPN platforms.
After each team plays four games, the top four teams will advance to the playoffs and participate in the semifinals July 18. The two winning teams from the semifinal games will meet in the championship game the following night.
The four playoff teams and their seeds will be determined by winning percentage in each team’s first four games. The 26 teams that do not advance to the four-team playoff will play a fifth game July 17, 18 or 19.
Orlando is still working to finalize its summer league roster and hasn’t yet announced who will coach the group.
Some of the roster is known. Nelson will play. Team president Jeff Weltman said last year’s Magic rookies — Jase Richardson and Noah Penda — will be on the roster, too. They will be joined out west by University of Miami forward Malik Reneau and South Carolina guard Mike Sharavjamts.
Reneau signed an Exhibit 10 contract with Orlando, the Hurricanes announced Thursday. That means Reneau will also attend Magic training camp, which opens Sept. 29 at the AdventHealth Training Center. Sharavjamts has only signed with the Magic for summer league, Jon Chepkevich of DraftExpress.com first reported.
Orlando’s full summer league roster, along with who will coach the team, will be released at a later date.
