NBA Summer League 2012 Stats: Best Choices for All-Vegas Team

It's important not to overreact to the summer league, but when players completely dominate the action, you have to at least take notice. 

Whether it's a budding rookie, an NBA D-league star or a 28-year-old former top-five pick who used to have an ugly mustache but now has unnecessarily long hair, if they look unstoppable, even during summer league, there is a good chance they will have a spot on an NBA roster. 

Let's take a look at the players who have had the best performances of the past week. 

Guard: Damian Lillard, Portland Trail Blazers

Remember all that talk about Damian Lillard's game not translating because he didn't face the stiffest competition at Weber State?

Yeah, me either. 

The dynamic point guard has faced the same competition as all the other top rookies this past week, and he's managed to outshine all of them to the tune of 26.5 points, four rebounds and 5.3 assists per game. 

The shooting percentage, at 43.8 percent, has been a little inefficient, but I'm guessing his ability to score from all over the court and run the pick-and-roll with precision will make his coaches forget about that real quick.

Lillard's only competition at the point guard spot this year is Nolan Smith. He should get plenty of minutes, and if the last week is any indication, he's going to contend for Rookie of the Year with those minutes. 

Guard: Josh Selby, Memphis Grizzlies

Bradley Beal, you may make plenty of first-teams in your career, but there simply isn't room for you on this one.

I wanted to include the guard from Florida for his all-around play, but Selby has been too lights out.

And by lights out, I mean he blacked out the entire Las Vegas Strip.

In four games this week, Selby has poured in 24.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists and an impressive 2.4 steals per game. But here's what's really impressive:

Selby is shooting 55.7 percent from the field and 64.3 percent from three-point range. He has hit 27-of-42 from long range. Most guys don't hit shots at that clip in practice. 

Just let it sink in. 64 percent from long range. 

Forward: Adam Morrison, Los Angeles Clippers

Adam Morrison has about as much defense as Rajon Rondo has a jump shot, but he's proving that his offensive game should be enough for an NBA team to take a shot on him. 

In five games for the Clippers, Morrison averaged 20.0 points  and five rebounds per game on 55.1 percent shooting from the field and 61.9 percent from three-point range.

Those numbers are pure Selby-ian. 

The 28-year-old Morrison—yes, he's still only 28—can drill it from three-point range, obviously, but he is also deadly from mid-range off one or two dribbles. Bring him off the bench for instant offense and he is more than capable of doing just that. 

Forward: Tobias Harris, Milwaukee Bucks

I always thought Tobias Harris left Tennessee too early, but after Harris got some solid time as a role player as a mere rookie, it appeared I was wrong.

If this past week's performance is any indication, then I'm going to be very wrong, as Harris averaged 20.8 points on 53 percent shooting to go with seven rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.8 blocks per game. 

Harris is a bit of a tweener. I'm still unsure if he's really a power forward or a small forward, but he's proving that doesn't really matter. Put him on the court and he's going to produce at a high rate.

Center: Bernard James, Dallas Mavericks

The Brandon Weeden of the NBA is making it very clear he will be ready to contribute right away for the Dallas Mavericks.

James has never been the most dominant offensive player, but if he can prove to be efficient on that end, he's going to carve out a role. He did that this summer, as he averaged 10.2 points per game on 61 percent shooting.

Where he's most valuable, though, is on the defensive end. In just 26.2 minutes per game in Vegas, James averaged nine rebounds, 1.4 steals and 2.6 blocks per game.

I don't care who you are, that kind of play is going to get you on the court.
