ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — The flashes from a baseline photographer’s camera kept popping while Evan Turner was taking free throws. Then again when Derrick Favors pulled up for a jumper.
Neither one flinched. Neither complained. Neither, really, seemed to notice the distracting flashes in their first pro outing.
They might be ready for the big time yet.
The No. 2 and No. 3 overall picks in this year’s draft showed off their potential Monday night, even if it wasn’t always at its best.
In the most decorated matchup of young hopefuls at this week’s NBA summer league in Orlando, Turner had 12 points and eight rebounds to help the Philadelphia 76ers beat Favors and the New Jersey Nets 84-74.
