Kai Sotto gets Summer League invite from Orlando


Kai Sotto has received an invite from Orlando to join the Magic’s NBA Summer League team.

Multiple reports bared the development hours after the 2023 NBA Draft.

It can be recalled that Orlando was one of the teams that invited the 7-foot-3 Filipino big man for a workout prior to last year’s draft.

Sotto went undrafted.

Since then, Sotto played one more season with Adelaide in the National Basketball League-Australia before heading to the B.League with Hiroshima.

In his final season with the 36ers, Sotto averaged 6.81 points and 4.52 rebounds in 27 games played.
