Brayden Burries shines in Summer League after being drafted 10th by Bucks

Brayden Burries has emerged as a standout in the NBA Summer League, leading all lottery guards with averages of 23.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.0 steals per game. His impressive performance follows the Milwaukee Bucks selecting him 10th overall in the 2026 NBA Draft. In contrast, the Utah Jazz chose Darryn Peterson second overall, a decision largely defended despite Burries' breakout display. While Burries shows potential as a major draft steal, the Jazz remain confident in their selection of Peterson as an All-Star candidate for the future. Prospects for Burries and Peterson remain bright as both teams focus on building their respective rosters.
