On Monday, two different NBA Summer Leagues were officially in session as the Salt Lake City version got underway. This also meant the summer debut of the Sixers and T.J. McConnell. In a game-high 29 minutes of action, McConnell scored five points, dished out seven assists and pulled in seven rebounds.
He was also debuting a new haircut, which the fans seemed to enjoy
