A SWAC basketball player to appear in NBA Summer League

 

Former Alabama A&M forward Xavier Brewer will be part of the 18-man Detroit Pistons NBA Summer League roster.

 

The 6 foot 9 forward out of Sandy Creek High School in Georgia spent his first three collegiate seasons playing for Morehouse College, where he appeared in 70 games, averaging 6.1 points and 3.5 rebounds.

After his junior season, Brewer transferred to Alabama A&M, making 23 appearances for the Bulldogs.

Brewer is the second player whose appearance on an NBA Summer League roster was announced. Last week, Norfolk State All-MEAC center Kris Bankston was added to the Minnesota Timberwolves  roster. 

The Pistons will take part in the NBA 2K24 Summer League, which will tip off in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Detroit will start play against the Orlando Magic on July 8.
