Bucks' Bogoljub Markovic: Sinks four triples in SL loss
Rotowire
Markovic supplied 16 points (5-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block across 27 minutes in Monday's 95-88 Summer League loss to the Suns.
After missing his first three attempts from beyond the arc, Markovic knocked down each of his final four three-point tries and finished as Milwaukee's second-leading scorer. He also tied for the team lead in rebounds. The 2025 second-round pick is far from guaranteed a consistent role for the Bucks in 2026-27 and may spend time with the club's G League affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd, as he continues to develop his three-point shot and overall game.

Rotowire
Burries racked up 23 points (8-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-7 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, four steals and one block across 29 minutes in Monday's 95-88 Summer League loss to the Suns.
After scoring 26 points in the front end of this back-to-back set, Burries impressed yet again Monday. Although he struggled at the charity stripe, the rookie No. 10 overall pick turned in an efficient performance from the field and led all players in scoring, assists and steals while tying the team high in rebounds. The Arizona product has scored at least 18 points in all three of his Las Vegas Summer League appearances thus far, totaling 14 rebounds, 12 assists, seven steals and three blocks in those outings.

Rotowire
Ament accounted for seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds and three turnovers in 25 minutes during Sunday's 90-80 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Spurs.
Ament has been relatively quiet through his first two games in Las Vegas, scoring in single digits with modest contributions elsewhere. It'll be interesting to see if he plays Monday against the Suns, with that game being the second in a back-to-back set.

Bucks' Kasparas Jakucionis: Scores 11 points in SL loss Friday
Rotowire
Jakucionis finished with 11 points (2-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal over 21 minutes in Friday's 119-86 Summer League loss to Miami.
Jakucionis played sparingly throughout his inaugural 2025-26 NBA season with the Heat. However, the 20-year-old still had sporadic production, averaging 8.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.3 blocks and 0.8 steals while shooting 45.8 percent in 12 regular-season starts. Although Jakucionis has already demonstrated he can play a meaningful role when needed, he could continue to struggle for consistent playing time in Milwaukee. Still, with Tyler Herro (foot) and Kevin Porter (knee) known for durability issues, the door is open for Jakucionis to carve out a path to playing time.

Rotowire

Burries dropped 16 points on 5-of-11 shooting from the field in the first half, though he struggled in the third quarter and didn't see the floor in the fourth. The rookie guard still finished as Milwaukee's leading scorer and was one of three Bucks players to score in double figures. He's scored at least 12 points in both of his appearances this summer, though he's shot just 2-for-9 from beyond the arc thus far.
