Here are a few possible entries if Przemek Karnowski, Domantas Sabonis and Kyle Wiltjer were asked to write a paper titled: “What I did this summer.” Karnowski briefly guarded NBA great Pau Gasol, tangled daily in practice with Washington Wizards center Marcin Gortat. Traveled to Latvia, Spain, Germany, France and his native Poland. Did homework. Sabonis played all over the globe, including a Nike camp in Los Angeles where he roomed with Wiltjer. Key member of Lithuania’s U-20 team and later a role player for national team at the prestigious European championships. Had interesting tiff with Matthew Dellavedova. Did homework/Jim Meehan, SR. More here.

Question: Am I the only one who can't wait for Gonzaga basketball to tip off again?
