Richaun Holmes had another strong game in the NBA Summer League last night, as he played against the Celtics, who are being coached by former Falcon Jay Larranaga. In fact, Holmes was more effective than he was the first night. He played 18 minutes--these are still 40 minute games--and scored 13 points on 5 of 12 shooting, 8 rebounds, 2 blocks and a steal, which is a really healthy line for 18 minutes. I watched the game, he was very much in the flow. He was only 1 of 5 from 3FG and had 3 fouls. His 3FG shooting has struggled. The shots I saw him take were good to very good looks, for whatever that is worth.
He will play again Thursday night in the late game against Utah. Those games have been drawing 10,000+, so it will be a little better environment.
Here's a link to a set of highlights that is entitled "Okafor and Holmes dominate the paint," There were some nice highlights from Richaun in the video.
Good job, Richaun!
