The NBA G League Elite Camp resumed on Tuesday for its second and final day as draft-eligible prospects competed in front of scouts, coaches and front-office executives in Chicago, Illinois.

In total, 44 individuals were selected to participate in the event this year. The first day saw several players emerge above the rest with the likes of Marcus Sasser (Houston), Jalen Wilson (Kansas) and Darius Days (LSU) among those that stood out.

With the event wrapping up, other prospects showed out on the second day in an attempt to impress those talent-evaluators on hand. Rookie Wire took a look at some of the best performances from Tuesday.

Bryson Williams, Texas Tech

Stats: 23 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal

Williams followed up a 14-point performance on Monday by tying a camp-high with 23 points on Tuesday to lead his team to the win. He went 7-of-8 from the field and the free-throw line and also added two 3-pointers in his performance.

He is among the seven players to earn an invitation to the draft combine.

Tyrese Martin, UConn

Stats: 13 points, 14 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block

Martin produced just the second double-double in the event by recording 13 points and 14 rebounds. He showed off a little of everything in the outing, capped off by his scoring and rebounding. He also pushed the break off of a rebound and finished himself at the rim. With the performance, Martin earned an invitation to the combine.

Quenton Jackson, Texas A&M

Stats: 18 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist

Jackson scored a team-high 18 points on Tuesday in a loss and shot very well, converting on 6-of-10 attempts from the field. He did a little bit of everything from cutting to the basket to creating for himself and driving into the paint. He ultimately did not earn an invite to the combine but certainly helped himself after his two performances in Chicago.

Buddy Boeheim, Syracuse

Stats: 20 points, 1 rebound

Boeheim shook off a tough game on Monday by erupting for 20 points. He drained six 3-pointers to lead his team to the win. He entered the week highly touted for his shooting ability and got to show that off in the final day of the camp.

Jules Bernard, UCLA

Stats: 16 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds

Bernard made the cut once again on Day 2 after scoring 18 points on Monday. He followed that up and had 16 points in a loss on Tuesday, shooting 4-of-9 from the field. He wasn’t on the radar much entering the week but had a strong showing in front of teams that should earn him some workouts.
