The 2009 NBA Summer League, which takes place at the Thomas & Mack Center and Cox Pavilion from July 10-19, released its game schedule on Monday.

The 10-day affair includes 21 NBA teams sending rosters filled with draft picks, other young prospects and free agents. The main attraction on this year's schedule is sure to be Blake Griffin, the Oklahoma sophomore who is likely to be taken No. 1 overall in this week's NBA Draft by the Los Angeles Clippers.

Barring any draft night trades, the top 10 picks in the draft will be making their pro debuts in Las Vegas next month.

Should all go according to plan and Griffin goes to the Clippers, he would make his professional debut at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, July 13, at the Thomas & Mack Center.

General admission tickets are still available at the Thomas & Mack box office and at UNLVtickets.com. Tickets are $25 for adults, $15 for children ages 3-12 and seniors. Children 2 and under are free.
