Houston’s Summer League run ended with a 100-90 loss to Memphis, but don’t call it a disappointment—this was actually a breakout performance. Bruce Thornton, despite a rough shooting night, still delivered 8 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists, while Quadir Copeland lit up the scoreboard with 24 efficient points. Memphis’ Cedric Coward led the way with 28 points, but Houston’s defense and three-point shooting—huge improvements from last season—showcased their potential. Coach Udoka’s physical, disciplined style is clearly taking root, and both Thornton and Copeland have made a strong case for regular-season minutes.
