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.
