Bufkin posted 18 points (7-18 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, one assist, one steal and a block across 23 minutes during Sunday's 101-80 loss to the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
Bufkin continues to struggle to score efficiently, missing all six of his three-point attempts and shooting 39% from the floor. Despite his offensive struggles, Bufkin showed promise on the defensive end, recording a steal and a block, and taking multiple charges. The 15th overall pick will likely be a depth piece at the guard position for Atlanta to start his rookie campaign.

Bufkin amassed 13 points (3-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 99-93 win over the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Bufkin has struggled with his efficiency throughout his Summer League campaign. The Michigan product will likely come off the bench to begin the season and might be eased into a larger role as his efficiency and comfortability at the NBA level increase.

Bufkin totaled 17 points (6-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists, five rebounds and a block across 27 minutes in Sunday's 98-93 win over the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Bufkin found success from three-point range but struggled to get it going inside the arc, converting just 2-of-9 two-point attempts. Despite his inefficiency, he did well distributing, dishing six assists, and was solid on the boards. Bufkin will likely remain a key piece for Atlanta's Summer League team, and could be a candidate for a bench contributor for the Hawks come the regular season.
