In a previous NBA summer league game, the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 87-85, achieving their first victory in the summer league.

In this game, the Mavericks' starting point guard Ryan Nembhard's performance is impressive. Nemhard played 32 minutes and 33 seconds in the whole game, made 8 of 14 shots, 1 of 2 from outside the three-point line, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored the highest score of the team with 21 points plus 2 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal. He also had 3 turnovers and 2 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +6. Nemhard showed super scoring ability on the offensive end, and his stability in mid- and long-distance shooting can be said to be quite outstanding. Not only that, Nemhard also has certain passing and organizational skills. Nemhard's performance on the defensive end is also quite normal, and there is no big problem. Overall, Nemhard fully demonstrated his talents in this game. It can be said that he broke the Lakers' defense through his efforts in all aspects. His brave state is also an important factor in the team's ability to achieve such a victory.

Nemhard was born in March 2003 and is now 22 years old. He is the undraft in this year's NBA draft. According to data from the previous joint trial physical test, Nemhard's bare feet are 180.3cm in height, 188.6cm in wingspan, 238.8cm in height, and 79.7kg in weight. In the NCAA field this season, Nemhard made a total of 35 appearances for Gonzaga, averaging 35.1 minutes per game, averaging 10.5 points, 3 rebounds, 9.8 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 2.5 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. He shot 44.6%, three-point shooting percentage 40.4%, and free throw shooting percentage 77%. Nemhard is the backcourt core and starting point guard of Gonzaga University. He is also the assist king of NCAA last season. His importance to the team is also very prominent. After the draft, the Mavericks gave Nemhard a two-way contract, which also shows that the Mavericks are quite optimistic about Nemhard's ability. In the first game of the summer league, Nemhard quickly showed his abilities in all aspects, and he also proved that he is a very mature player and has the ability to play an important role in this level of competition. Not only that, Nemhard's scoring ability seems to be seriously underestimated. He is not just a organizer, he is also an excellent scorer. It is worth mentioning that Nemhard's brother is Andrew Nembhard, the Indiana Pacers backcourt star who performed well in this year's NBA playoffs. With such an excellent brother, it doesn't seem that the younger brother is too bad.
