Ghana Center Amida Brimah played all four games for Brooklyn Nets in the preliminary round of the 2019 NBA Summer League and is likely to suit up to feature in the next round.

The preseason competition is taking place in Las Vegas and is primed for the knockout stages commencing Saturday, July 13.

Brimah played seven, 13 and two minutes off the bench in three games but impressed in his first start for the team helping the team to an 88-85 win over Washington Wizards.

Playing 19 minutes, Amida scored 14 points, grabbed eight rebounds and blocked two shots. The defender recorded at least a block in three of those games.

Brooklyn won three out of four games in the first round to place seventh in the rankings ahead of Memphis Grizzlies who grabbed the eighth seed.

Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons Summer League teams grabbed the first and second seeds respectively. Celtics are unbeaten in four games.

Winners are to be determined in one game matchups.
