Kay Felder scored 15 points in the Cavaliers Summer League win on Monday. Here is his highlight reel, presented through Vines.

Kay Felder gave the crowd inside the Thomas And Mack Center plenty to appreciate, including Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue.

Felder, 21, scored 15 points on 7-of-13 (53.8 percent) shooting from the floor. He only went 1-for-6 (16.7 percent) from three-point range, which is an area that he needs to work on. In addition to his scoring onslaught, he tallied three assists and four rebounds.

He showcased great court vision and good passing skills to find open teammates. He also had several nice plays in transition.

Now let’s get to the visual highlights.

Felder showcased his mid-range jumper a couple of times throughout the game, with one of them coming early in the first quarter.

He used his quickness on several occasions, including driving to the basket and finding an open teammate. This would set up free-throw opportunities.

Felder also uses his quickness to run in transition. He has a 44-inch vertical that can come in handy, but this time he uses great body control to convert a layup.

Felder can also use his quickness off of screens. In this instance he blows past his defender who gets caught up in a screen 35 feet from the basket. Felder was able to get an open mid-range jumper that he knocked down with ease.

Was it a shot? Was it a pass? Did the pass go off the backboard? On one of the craziest plays of the game, Felder through this pass off the backboard to an open teammate in the corner.

When defenders challenge Felder as he drives through the paint, getting to the rim isn’t always a feasible goal. He used a runner to score two points before the Wolves’ rim protectors had a chance to react.

Felder has proven that he can get into the lane and draw defenders to set up his big men around the rim. This time he penetrates and kicks out to an open shooter.

Felder really had an opportunity to showcase his great court vision on this fast break. He was able to navigate around the defense and get the hockey assist on a smooth alley-oop.

Last but not least, Felder was able to knock down an open three-point attempt towards the end of his night.

There are areas of Felder’s game that need work. He needs to improve his range as a shooter, which may be the most urgent part of his game.

He has proven that he has the ability to draw fouls and get to the free-throw line, but he’s been held without an attempt in each of his last two games. Felder needs to get to the free-throw line consistently to be most effective.
