Rookies from the 2026 draft class are poised to make big impacts early—Bruce Thornton, Meleek Thomas, Trevon Brazile, and Emmanuel Sharp could all steal minutes with standout Summer League performances. Thornton, Houston’s playmaking spark, led scoring with 19 PPG and grit reminiscent of VanVleet. Thomas, Cleveland’s surprise scoring machine, averaged 27 PPG with elite shooting. Brazile, Denver’s long-range forward, could back up Jokic with scoring and rebounding. Sharp, Sacramento’s defensive dynamo, averaged nearly 20 PPG and steals while hitting threes. All four could be steals if given the chance.
