Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Edmond Byron Sumner was born in 1995 in Beverly Hills, Michigan. He is the son of Ernest and Felicia and has two siblings, Shanequa and Ernest Jr. Sumner played high school ball at Detroit Country Day School. While at DCD, Sumner led the team to a state title, two regional championships and three district championships. He also reached the 1,000-point club in high school. While playing collegiate ball at Xavier University, Sumner studied computer science. Edmond Sumner spent three years (2014-2017) at Xavier University, playing in a combined 58 games with the Musketeers. Sumner played six games for the Musketeers in his first year at Xavier, averaging 1.3 points and an assist before being granted a medical redshirt due to knee issues. The next year, as a redshirt freshman, Sumner vastly improved his numbers. He started 29 of the 31 games and averaged 11.0 points, 3.6 assists and 1.3 steals per contest. In recognition of his efforts, Sumner was named to the Big East All-Freshman team. The 6-foot-4 guard entered the next season on the Wooden Award Preseason watch list. He backed up the hype. Sumner upped his points per game average to 15.0 and also produced 5.0 assists and 1.3 steals per contest.

Cut by Charlotte
GFree Agent
October 24, 2023
The Hornets waived Sumner on Tuesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sumner will cede his spot on the Hornets' 15-man roster to point guard Ish Smith, who agreed to a one-year deal with the organization. With Frank Ntilikina suffering a fractured left tibia that will keep him sidelined for around one month, adding a traditional backup point guard in Smith was a need for Charlotte rather than keeping Sumner on hand as wing depth.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Decent play for Brooklyn
GBrooklyn Nets
November 24, 2022
Despite being name-dropped in Kevin Durant's interview with Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report, Sumner has graded as a positive contributor to the Nets through 16 appearances.
ANALYSIS
Sumner is averaging 7.8 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.2 steals/blocks in 16.2 minutes per game. Durant's full quote read, "look at our starting lineup. Edmond Sumner, Royce O'Neale, Joe Harris, [Nic] Claxton and me. It's not disrespect, but what are you expecting from that group?" While not flashy, Sumner's usage has yielded a solid plus-2.0 point differential, fueled by a plus-4.2 differential on defense.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
2019
Sumner continued to hold a depth role with the Pacers last season, though he was able to have a nice string of performances to end the season while Indiana dealt with injuries. During his final 24 appearances (19 starts), he averaged 10.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 21.6 minutes. However, Sumner suffered a torn Achilles during an offseason workout and is expected to miss most, if not all, of the upcoming season.
Forced into action last season, Sumner logged career highs in a number of categories in his third NBA season. He averaged 4.9 points, 1.8 dimes and 1.5 rebounds across 14.4 minutes as a reserve for Indiana and drew three starts for the short-handed Pacers. Sumner saw extended run due to a litany of injuries across the board for the Pacers, but barring similar circumstances in 2020-21, Sumner isn't expected to see many meaningful minutes. He'll contend with the likes of Victor Oladipo, Jeremy Lamb, Malcolm Brogdon, Aaron Holiday and Justin Holiday for playing time on the wing, and Sumner is a guy to leave undrafted in nearly all fantasy basketball leagues this season.
A late-second-round pick in 2017, Sumner appeared in only one game as a rookie but saw a slight increase in opportunity in Year 2. He made 23 appearances, logging a pair of starts and averaging 2.9 points, 1.0 rebound and 0.5 steals in 9.1 minutes per contest. The Xavier product inked an extension with the Pacers over the summer, and he could be set for a larger workload in 2019-20. He's able to play three positions, so the hope is he'll be able to help compensate for the losses of Thad Young and Bojan Bogdanovic, while also filling in as a reserve guard as Victor Oladipo recovers from a severe knee injury. Fantasy-wise, Sumner should not be on the radar for most owners, but he may be another injury or two away from stepping into a regular rotation spot.
