We have a jam-packed episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way!
First, Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones react to opening day (and night) of Las Vegas Summer League. They discuss AJ Dybantsa’s debut in a showdown against Darryn Peterson and the Jazz, the Darius Acuff-Keaton Wagler duel, the Morez Johnson-Yaxel Lendeborg matchup and much more.

From there, they discuss the latest NBA news. Is the Kawhi Leonard trade actually in jeopardy? What do we make of this massive six-team trade? Have the Jazz done a good enough job of replacing Walker Kessler?
On the WNBA side, the guys have a nuanced conversation about the Las Vegas Aces’ decision to waive Chennedy Carter: where communication might’ve broken down, some of the on-court shortcomings, and why we haven’t heard much from the Aces — at least not yet.
To close, they discuss this year’s All-Star reserves and who could potentially replace Kelsey Plum if she hasn’t returned to the court by then.
