The 2025 Summer League is done and dusted and many of the 16 Australian men's basketballers made significant cases for a NBA contract both rostered and two-way.

Australia's four newest Aussies in the NBA suited up for the teams that drafted them in the 2025 NBA Draft while players such as 2025 NBL Grand Final hero William "Davo" Hickey, waived Houston Rockets guard Jack McVeigh, former NBA champion Jack White, two-way player Taran Armstrong, and NBL1 star Biwali Bayles earned Summer League contracts in the hope of fulfilling their dreams of making a roster.

Australian-born New Zealand international Tyrell Harrison earned a Summer League contract with the Denver Nuggets and made an impact as a starter all week.

Australian Johnny Furphy delivered the highlight of the tournament with a ridiculous poster while Sydney-sider Tyrese Proctor equalled the all-time Summer League record for points with 35.

It's only a matter of time before teams announce their post Summer League signings.
