The Memphis Grizzlies have been quite underwhelming from an individual perspective throughout this year's Summer League play, but many of the club's contributors have proven to be rather impressive from an individual standpoint.

While many may have believed the returning contributors would be the ones leading the charge in the productivity department, interestingly enough, it has been the participants from this summer's rookie class that have caught the attention of fans, pundits, and team veterans alike.

Prior to their first outing during the Las Vegas stretch of play, sophomore GG Jackson made an appearance on The Chris Vernon Show, where he was asked to describe his year-one teammates through these early stages of the offseason.

Though his commentary on the likes of Zach Edey and Jaylen Wells remained professional and by the book, acknowledging their strong efforts and defensive abilities, when it came to former UConn guard Cam Spencer, Jackson issued a hilarious descriptor that had the pundits on the podcast howling with laughter.

"Excuse my language, [he's a] f*cking dog... I don't even call him Cam when I'm around him, I call him National Champion."

While to many, Spencer's shooting abilities have been the main draws to his SL play thus far, as Jackson would elaborate on, it has been the rookies' efforts behind the scenes that are most impressive.

"His work ethic is insane... His workouts, if he feels like it's not up to where he wants it to be, he's hilarious."

From his pump fakes to his smooth jumper and quick release, Spencer has been an immediate fan favorite among this Grizzlies Summer League squad, and, through three total outings played between Utah and Nevada, he finds himself posting solid averages of 14.7 points, 3.7 assists, and 4.3 rebounds while shooting 54.8 percent from the field and 52.9 percent from distance.

His latest showing against the Kings he went on to finish 15 points, three rebounds, and four assists on 66.7 percent shooting and 60.0 percent shooting from distance.

Though he may have only been a second-rounder who heads into his first season in the association attached to a two-way deal, perhaps there's a chance the Grizzlies may have themselves yet another late-round selection who can break onto the scene in a major way a la Jackson himself.
