Well-rounded outing in SL win
Donaldson generated 15 points (6-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), six assists, five rebounds and three steals across 30 minutes in Monday's 95-85 California Classic Summer League win over Warriors Gold.
Analysis
Donaldson moved into the starting lineup Monday and struggled with efficiency, though he still finished as Miami's third-leading scorer while delivering a solid all-around performance. The 22-year-old point guard, who signed a two-way pact with the Heat after going undrafted this year, also led the team in assists and steals. He scored in double figures in two of his three California Classic appearances, dishing out at least four assists in two outings as well.

Scores 11 in SL loss
Donaldson recorded 11 points (4-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists, two rebounds and a steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 93-91 double-overtime loss to the Lakers at the California Classic Summer League.
Analysis
Donaldson went perfect from the field in Sunday's game and matched Tre White for the most points from a Heat reserve player. Donaldson struggled in his first Summer League appearance, totaling just two points and three turnovers in 18 minutes, but he bounced back with a sound performance Sunday. The University of Miami product is signed to a two-way deal and figures to spend most of his time in the G League this season.
