Jaylen Sims: Breaking News

Signs with Charlotte

Sims signed a contract with the Hornets on Friday. This is likely an Exhibit 10 contract for Sims, meaning he'll be a candidate for the Greensboro Swarm in the G League. Sims is the all-time leading scorer for the Swarm, so this move makes a lot of sense for both sides.

Drops 25 points in SL win

Sims supplied 25 points (10-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes in Saturday's 109-80 Summer League win over the Thunder. Sims posted a team-high mark in three-pointers en route to a game-high 25 points during an extremely efficient outing. The 26-year-old appeared in 49 outings with the G League's Greensboro Swarm in 2024-25, during which he averaged 19.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.0 steals in 33.0 minutes per game. Now, the Hornets will face the Kings in Sunday's championship game.

Drops career-high 12 points

Sims ended Sunday's 93-86 loss to the Celtics with 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes. Sims finished the 2024-25 campaign on a strong note, finishing with a career-high 12 points in Sunday's loss to Boston. The 25-year-old guard played in 12 games this season, averaging 7.0 points, 1.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game, shooting 42.9 percent from the field and 40 percent from beyond the arc.
