“I was ecstatic come draft night just to hear my name called. And now, after playing in the summer league and getting to know some of the guys and being able to play under the coaching staff and seeing the great things that are going on here in this organization, I'm even more excited to put my name on the dotted line.”
Wayne Simien
“If a June night could talk, it would probably boast that it invented romance.”
Bern Williams
“I might be playing in a summer league at Hudson Valley, getting in shape for next season. I want to work on my consistency. There were times that we needed that big three and I missed it. Consistency is the thing.”
Whitney Frament
“Well, I have lost you; and I lost you fairly;In my own way, and with my full consent.Say what you will, kings in a tumbrel rarelyWent to their deaths more proud than this one went.Some nights of apprehension and hot weepingI will confess; but that's permitted me;Day dried my eyes; I was not one for keepingRubbed in a cage a wing that would be free.If I had loved you less or played you slylyI might have held you for a summer more,But at the cost of words I value highly,And no such summer as the one before.Should I outlive this anguish-and men do-I shall have only good to say of you.”
Edna St. Vincent Millay
“We played them in the summer or fall (league) and only beat them by a point or two. Then we saw they played Hampton tough the other night (in a Peninsula District tournament semifinal), and we had some worries.”
Darnell Dozier
“With the pressure relieved, he and (rookie center) Johan (Petro) both are playing better than in summer league.”
Bob Weiss
“There are several pitches that she's improved on. She played for several summer league teams last year and has improved a lot.”
