News summary

Jaylen Wells made a strong return from injury, scoring 20 points in the Memphis Grizzlies' Summer League win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, highlighting his potential for a breakout sophomore season. The Grizzlies' Summer League roster, announced July 4, features returning players like Wells, Cam Spencer, and GG Jackson, with rookies such as Cedric Coward remaining doubtful due to a shoulder injury.

The Grizzlies are using the summer circuit to assess talent and build team chemistry ahead of the new season.
