We've passed the halfway point of Summer League and are nearing the business end of things. 

There will be eight games on Day 8 of the 11-day event, beginning at 3 p.m. ET when the Hawks take on the Spurs at the Thomas & Mack Center.

The full day of action concludes with a 9:30 p.m. ET matchup between the Trail Blazers and Rockets. 

Jabari Smith Jr. has definitely grown with each game he's played and has shown flashes of why he was selected by the Rockets with the No. 3 overall pick in this year's draft. 

With plenty of action to follow, The Sporting News is tracking live updates from each of Thursday's Summer League games.
