LAS VEGAS — Drew Timme came to summer league signed, but not safe.
He could be changing that here in Sin City. Along with all the preconceived ideas and premature narratives about whether he’s an NBA player.
Still very much fighting for his place on Brooklyn’s roster, Timme has been far and away the Nets’ best player here in Las Vegas. The big man is in the early running for MVP of the event, and to prove he belongs in the league.
It’s something he’s not taking for granted.
