If you are anything like me, you have been watching highlights from the Utah Jazz summer league victory on Saturday afternoon incessantly with a massive cheesy grin every single time. Luckily for people like us, the Jazz take the floor once again, this time against a familiar face in Taylor Hendricks and the #3 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Cameron Boozer.

Players to Watch
Darryn Peterson
Coming as a surprise to absolutely no one, the main player to watch in this one is once again going to be Darryn Peterson. After an absolutely superb debut showing on Independence Day, where he tallied 28 points on 11/21 shooting to go along with 5 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals, all eyes will be on him to see how he will follow up those 4th of July fireworks. This time out, he will face off against the #3 overall pick, Cameron Boozer, who will surely look to make a statement against him. Darryn is the marquee player on the floor every time he plays in Summer League. As such, he has a target on his back. There are lots of guys on the opposing roster who will look to embarrass him to make a bigger name for themselves. One thing in particular to keep an eye on in this game is the turnovers. Darryn was responsible for 8 turnovers on Saturday night, and while not all of them were his fault, that is definitely a number that should be cleaned up as he gets more comfortable on the floor with his teammates.
Cody Williams
Cody Williams looked amazing in the Jazz Summer League Opener. The pessimistic side of things could look at his performance and say, “That is what 3rd-year players should do in Summer League. The optimistic side of that, however, is that there were legitimate stretches early in Cody’s NBA career when he genuinely didn’t look like he was going to make it through his rookie contract. It is really nice to see him getting stronger and more confident with the ball no matter the setting. If he can keep it up, he could be a really important player for this Jazz team with his length and defense as well.

Cameron Boozer
Cameron Boozer will come out hungry and ready to prove a point to the Jazz. Last time out, he scored 15 points on 7/11 shooting in a dominant win over the Thunder. His dad, Carlos, we all know, works in the front office for Utah and during the predraft process, was quoted in an interview with Marc Spears as saying, “If they miss the boat, they will regret it,” when asked why NBA teams should take his son. You can bet your bottom dollar that Cameron feels the exact same way and wants to embarrass Darryn Peterson in front of his home fans. Although they won’t be matched up head-to-head very often, watch out for the two guys to try to really go at it.
