PRESCOTT VALLEY — Four Northern Arizona Suns players began taking part in NBA Summer League 2018 in Las Vegas Friday night, July 6, the team announced in a news release.
Archie Goodwin, Josh Gray, Rahlir Hollis-Jefferson and Alec Peters are participating in the event that runs from July 6-17 at Thomas & Mack Center and Cox Pavilion on the campus of the University of Nevada-Las Vegas.
Goodwin’s playing with the Portland Trail Blazers, Gray’s with the Minnesota Timberwolves, and Hollis-Jefferson and Peters are with the Phoenix Suns.
