Bennett Stirtz Fantasy Stats

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Bennett Stirtz supplied 18 points, two assists, one steal, and one block across 28 minutes in Friday's 96-84 Summer League loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. The No. 16 pick shot 7-for-14 from the field and 3-for-8 from three-point range, leading five Thunder players in double figures. Stirtz averaged 19.8 points, 4.4 assists, and 1.4 steals at Iowa last season, so the scoring and on-ball reps fit his profile. He still needs to prove he can handle NBA size, but his shooting and feel give him a path to bench-guard minutes.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Bennett Stirtz finished with 10 points, three rebounds, four assists, and two threes in his Salt Lake City Summer League debut, a 111-74 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. The No. 16 pick did not have a flashy scoring night, but the mix of shooting and playmaking fits his Iowa profile after he averaged 19.8 points, 4.4 assists, and 1.4 steals as a senior. Stirtz's fantasy value is more developmental than immediate, with Oklahoma City's guard rotation leaving him a narrow path to regular-season minutes.
