A pair of former Cincinnati Bearcats players Landers Nolley II and Tre Scott participated in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas this week!

Check out our reaction to the New Orleans Pelicans decision to sign Nolley as un undrafted free agent following the 2023 NBA Draft in June.

Nolley became the eighth player in program history to earn a spot on the All-AAC First Team after shooting 42.3 percent from 3-point range last year.

Scott took home All-AAC First Team recognition, AAC Defensive Player of the Year and AAC Most Improved Player during his senior season.
