Up and down in team exhibition Hunter (hamstring) participated in Memphis' exhibition game Tuesday against North Carolina, according to Jason Munz of The Commercial Appeal.

Impact According to Munz, there was a brief run when Hunter scored five straight baskets for Memphis. But afterward, he had been out for the last stretch of the game, as confirmed by Jonah Dylan of The Commercial Appeal and with no further reports of an injury. Hunter will look to establish at least some better consistency as Memphis' regular-season schedule looms forward.

Almost double-doubles in exhibition Hunter logged 22 points (7-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine assists, four rebounds and one block across 33 minutes when Texas hosted St. Edward's on Monday.

Impact Hunter was one assist short of a double-double. It is not expected to be a regular feature of Hunter's game, considering he never logged more than eight assists in any of the 2022-23 Texas Longhorns' games. Perhaps, that could change in his 2023-24 season, and it is expected to be a bright one for Hunter nonetheless. He averaged 10.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists across his 38 games started during Texas' 2022-23 season.
