Brimah challenges shot in game against Wizards

Brimah played 12 minutes off the bench and recorded six rebounds, three blocks, an assist, a steal and two points in the contest.

Amida converted one of just two shot attempts via a dunk in the third quarter to give Indiana a 50-39 lead with 1:32 minutes remaining on the clock.

Brimah had a slow start to life in this year’s Summer League but picked up for minutes and overall production later on in the nine day tournament.

The former University of Connecticut player competed in four of five Summer League games for Indiana missing one game to a “Rest Day”. He made his NBA debut last season.
