Labaron Philon Jr. dropped a game-high 24 points in the Philadelphia 76ers‘ 100-93 Summer League win over the Indiana Pacers on Day 3 in Las Vegas, leading a standout session that produced big lines across 12 different rookies and undrafted free agents. The No. 22 pick added 6 assists, 3 rebounds, and a steal in what was the most complete individual performance of the night. For fantasy managers hunting early-round sleepers, this class has already served up several names worth tracking.
Philon Jr. Headlines a Deep Night of Rookie Production
Philon Jr. finished 9-of-22 from the field and 2-of-5 from three, numbers that reflect the normal inefficiency of rookie debuts against professional competition. The scoring volume and playmaking output are the story here, not the shooting splits. A 24-point, 6-assist line at this stage of development is a legitimate signal, not noise.
Zuby Ejiofor was arguably the second-best performer of the session. The No. 23 pick posted 13 points, 6 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 2 steals in the Atlanta Hawks‘ 83-76 win over the Brooklyn Nets, shooting 3-of-6 from the field and a perfect 2-of-2 from three. Five stocks in a single game is the kind of defensive counting-stat output that dynasty managers prioritize over raw scoring.
Ja’Kobi Gillespie gave the San Antonio Spurs a well-rounded 14 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 steals in a 70-49 demolition of the New York Knicks. The No. 42 pick shot 6-of-14 from the field, but the assist-to-turnover profile and defensive activity are what matter for early fantasy evaluation.
Undrafted Performers Demanding Attention
Kylan Boswell and Michael Ajayi both played for the Charlotte Hornets and both delivered. Boswell went 3-of-3 from the field, 2-of-2 from deep, and posted 8 points, 7 assists, 4 rebounds, a steal, and zero turnovers. Zero turnovers with 7 assists is not a fluke line for an undrafted guard – it is a precision signal.
Ajayi added 12 points, 9 rebounds, a steal, and a block shooting 4-of-7 from the field. Two undrafted players combining for those lines in the same game gives the Hornets‘ Summer League team legitimate depth to evaluate heading into training camp.
Nimari Burnett logged 14 points, 3 assists, 3 rebounds, and 3 steals for the Toronto Raptors in a 102-89 win over Houston. Tre White of the Miami Heat matched that defensive intensity with 4 steals, 4 assists, 5 rebounds, a block, and zero turnovers while shooting 3-of-6 from three.
Jalon Moore is the name that carries the most backstory. The undrafted free agent missed the entire 2025-26 season with a pre-draft injury and is now suiting up for the New Orleans Pelicans‘ Summer League squad. He posted 13 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 steals in a 95-91 win over Charlotte, shooting 4-of-7 from the field. Healthy and productive is the only evaluation framework that matters for Moore right now, and he cleared it.
Full Day 3 Stat Sheet for Fantasy and Betting Managers

| Labaron Philon Jr. | Philadelphia 76ers | 24 | 3 | 6 | 1/0 |
| Tyler Nickel | New York Knicks | 16 | 2 | 1 | 2/0 |
| Braden Smith | Indiana Pacers | 16 | 2 | 5 | 2/0 |

| Ja’Kobi Gillespie | San Antonio Spurs | 14 | 5 | 5 | 2/0 |
| Peter Suder | Los Angeles Lakers | 14 | 0 | 2 | 0/0 |
| Jalon Moore | New Orleans Pelicans | 13 | 4 | 1 | 3/0 |
| Zuby Ejiofor | Atlanta Hawks | 13 | 6 | 2 | 2/3 |
| Tre White | Miami Heat | 13 | 5 | 4 | 4/1 |
| Michael Ajayi | Charlotte Hornets | 12 | 9 | 0 | 1/1 |
| Morez Johnson Jr. | Dallas Mavericks | 10 | 5 | 0 | 2/4 |
| Kylan Boswell | Charlotte Hornets | 8 | 4 | 7 | 1/0 |
Morez Johnson Jr. deserves a separate mention. The No. 9 pick posted 4 blocks and 2 steals for the Dallas Mavericks with 10 points and 5 rebounds, shooting 4-of-8 from the field. Six stocks from a lottery-pick big man is a dynasty-relevant ceiling indicator regardless of the scoring volume. Tyler Nickel led the Knicks with 16 points on 4-of-11 three-point shooting, and Braden Smith matched that total for the Pacers with a more efficient 3-of-6 line and 6-of-7 from the free throw line.
Early Summer League lines reward patience in evaluation. Stocks, assist-to-turnover ratios, and multi-category output across the first two or three games build a more reliable picture than any single game-high. This group has already given fantasy managers and bettors enough to form a genuine watchlist before Day 4 tips off.
