Bronny James, the son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, will be playing in the summer league for the second consecutive season. So will Jameer Nelson Jr., the son of former NBA point guard Jameer Nelson. He will be on San Antonio's summer league roster.

While the rookies tend to draw most of the attention, there are returnees who really need to make a positive impression in Las Vegas.

No. 3 overall pick VJ Edgecombe will reportedly be sidelined as the 76ers begin their summer league stint in Las Vegas on Thursday.

The main on-court event on the NBA summer calendar begins Thursday when the Las Vegas Summer League tips off from Sin City. There are seven games on Thursday's slate, including a matchup between Cooper Flagg's Dallas Mavericks and Bronny James' Los Angeles Lakers.
