The Atlanta Hawks have released their full roster for the Samsung Summer League that will be held in Las Vegas beginning on July 11. Here is a look at the full roster:

# Player Pos Ht Wt Birthdate Prior to NBA/Home Country Yrs
7 Michael Bramos G/F 6-6 225 05/27/87 Miami (Ohio)/USA R
25 Eric Dawson F 6-9 255 07/07/84 Midwestern State/USA 1
11 Stephen Holt G 6-4 195 12/06/91 Saint Mary's/USA R
12 John Jenkins G 6-4 215 03/06/91 Vanderbilt/USA 2
44 Abraham Milsap G 6-4 190 09/06/89 Tennessee State/USA R
18 Edo Muric F 6-8 190 11/27/91 Krka Novo Mesto/Slovenia R
31 Mike Muscala F/C 6-11 238 07/01/91 Bucknell/USA 1
10 Lamar Patterson G/F 6-5 225 08/12/91 Pittsburgh/USA R
33 Adreian Payne F/C 6-10 245 02/19/91 Michigan State/USA R
28 Casey Prather G/F 6-6 212 05/29/91 Florida/USA R
16 Trevor Releford G 6-0 190 12/23/91 Alabama/USA R
17 Dennis Schroder G 6-1 175 09/15/93 NY Phantoms/Germany 1
20 D.J. Shelton C 6-10 250 04/04/91 Washington State/USA R
22 Walter "Edy" Tavares C 7-3 260 03/22/92 Gran Canaria/Cape Verde R
24 Travis Wear F 6-10 230 09/21/90 UCLA/USA

Perhaps the biggest surprise on the roster is the inclusion of second round pick Walter Tavares. His status had been somewhat up in the air following the draft and the Hawks likely had to get clearance from FIBA before officially adding him to the roster. They had to take an identical route last summer with Lucas Nogueira who gained clearance shortly before tip off of the team's summer league opener.

We will take a more in depth look at the roster later but the first thing that jumps out at you is the amount of players that were drafted by the Hawks. John Jenkins, Mike Muscala and Dennis Schroder will be joined by the entire 2014 draft class which includes Tavares, first-round pick Adreian Payne and Lamar Patterson.

The Hawks list Darvin Ham as the team's head coach. He will be assisted by Kenny Atkinson, Taylor Jenkins and Jordan Ott.
