Although it has earned a rather impressive contract in the G League, the overall display was underwhelming to say the least.O'Neal first displayed skill at the NBA G League Elite Camp. Although he wasn't invited to the Draft Combine, the 22-year old put on a show for his team. Many expected that this would translate into impressive results in the Summer League.NBA G League@nbagleagueDOUBLE DOUBLEShareef O’Neal posted #EliteCamp’s first double-double!! 🏽 with 11 PTS and 10 REB, the @LSUBasketball alum is making himself known!!36358DOUBLE 🚨 DOUBLEShareef O’Neal posted #EliteCamp’s first double-double!! 💪🏽 with 11 PTS and 10 REB, the @LSUBasketball alum is making himself known!! https://t.co/kxzJ0dkdIdPaired up with Scotty Pippen Jr. in the LA Lakers, the expectations for the two were high. Unfortunately, O'Neal saw very little time on the floor.O'Neal averaged 4.7 points and 3.9 rebounds in just 10.7 minutes of game time. For obvious reasons, this wasn't enough to make a lasting impression on any team.While the direct line to the Lakers may be shut, the G League emerges as a solid route to earn a spot in an NBA team. Considering the recent success the Ignite squad has had with seeing players through to the NBA, the 22-year old finds himself in a great program.Additionally, teams in the league could benefit from having a player with his skillset on the roster. Fitting the bill for a modern big man, O'Neal could develop into an interesting asset if he is given the chance to do so.NBA on ESPN@ESPNNBALess than four years after undergoing open-heart surgery, @SSJreef made the most out of his summer league opportunity 1698131Less than four years after undergoing open-heart surgery, @SSJreef made the most out of his summer league opportunity 💜 https://t.co/UtNUs15bIR
