SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Former BYU basketball great Jimmer Fredette continues to pursue his dream of sticking in the NBA. Right now, Fredette is currently playing for the Golden State Warriors Summer League team. Just one week after the Phoenix Suns opted to not pick up the second year on Fredette’s two-year contract.
Last night, Jimmer and the summer league Dubs made their debut against Jimmer’s old franchise that drafted him, the Sacramento Kings.
In the game, Jimmer scored 14 points on five-of-10 shooting from the field in 16 minutes of action. Three of Jimmer’s 14 points were off of a long-range three-pointer early in the fourth quarter. He ended up one-of-five beyond the arc.

While Jimmer was competing once again in an NBA setting, he was doing it in style. Fredette had on his signature 361 brand shoes that were created while he was playing for the Shanghai Sharks in China.
