MANILA, Philippines – Filipino NBA hopeful Bobby Ray Parks Jr finally got the chance to play significant minutes in the Las Vegas Summer League Thursday, July 16, scoring his first basket as his Dallas Mavericks beat the Los Angeles Lakers 88-86.
Parks, 22, finished with 3 points, 1 rebound and 1 steal in 15 minutes – roughly the total amount of playing time he received in the Mavs’ 3 losses.
The two-time UAAP MVP caught an errant pass in the first quarter and seized the moment, using a crossover dribble to get the step on his defender before driving off his left-hand dribble for a layup.
Parks would attempt another layup in the third quarter before being fouled by Jabari Brown, hitting 1-of-2 free throws.
Jordan Clarkson, a Filipino-American NBA sophomore from the Los Angeles Lakers, scored 17 points.
The Mavs will play a selection of NBA D-League All-Stars tomorrow, July 17 Manila time, in the second round of tournament play while the Lakers play a consolation game. – Rappler.com
