What happened: Cameron Carr is drawing strong early reviews for his shooting, with a stroke described as pure and a super quick lift on his jumper. Adding strength is expected to be the priority in his development.
Why it matters: The evaluation carries weight for a rookie whose offensive calling card is his shooting. Carr, the No. 24 pick sent from New York to Los Angeles on draft night, has already backed up the scouting report on the floor, and how quickly he adds muscle will shape how soon that shooting translates to a rotation role.
By the numbers: Carr scored 19 points with five made three-pointers in his California Classic debut.
What to watch: Carr's remaining summer league outings will show whether the shooting holds up against tougher defense, while his strength program becomes the focus heading into the 2026-27 season.
