Courtney Lee's First NBA Points (Complete with Grainy, Low-Res Screengrabs!)

Orlando Magic draft pick Courtney Lee is officially in the scorebooks. Early in the Magic's first summer-league game of 2008, Lee took and made a tough leaner from the right elbow for his first NBA points, and for the Magic's first points of the summer as well. Here are some screenshots from the sequence:
Magic point guard Kevin Kruger delivers the pass to Lee, who comes off a Marcin Gortat screen.
Lee catches the pass and considers his next move.
His mind made up, Lee drives to the right...
... picks up his dribble at the elbow....
... elevates...
... and connects.
Currently, the Magic trail the New Jersey Nets, but I don't know the exact score; there's no on-screen scoreboard, and the camera only occasionally pans to the in-arena scoreboard. So, apologies. You can tune-in right now at OrlandoMagic.com.
A final note: Lee, originally listed as no. 32 on the Magic's roster, has changed his uniform number; he's wearing no. 11.

You know what would make this game great?
If the announcers made some sort of an effort to talk about the game. I mean, I’m about as forgiving of announcers as they come, but this is ridonkulous.

Dante and Galante
The Magic hired them to be funny. They’re at least trying… I guess.
Nice to get regular Mets/Phillies updates, though.

I like the Oklahoma City name suggestions, though.
Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Team.
Oklahoma City Thundercats.
Oklahoma City Prairie Dogs.
...etc.

I liked what I saw out of Lee and Gortat, didn’t get so much out of Augustine though.
I also watched some of the game between the Bulls and Heat. Rose looked like garbage and was shutdown by Chalmers. I understand he is a few years away but the no. 1 pick should dominate in the summer league. Sort of like Beasley did against Noah.
