Milwaukee Bucks release roster, schedule for 2024 NBA summer league – Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
The Milwaukee Bucks will head to the annual NBA Summer League in Las Vegas in the coming weeks with a 19-person roster under head coach Pete Dominguez.
During the regular season, Dominguez is an assistant coach under Doc Rivers. Fellow Bucks assistants Spencer Rivers and Jack Herum will join Dominguez, along with Wisconsin Herd head coach Beno Udrih. Donovan Ham, Lance Harris, Emmanuel Mavono and C.B. Garrett will also assist.
The roster is highlighted by several current members of the Bucks’ 2024-25 roster, including MarJon Beauchamp who is entering his third season. Second-year players Andre Jackson Jr. and Chris Livingston are also on the team, along with rookies AJ Johnson and Tyler Smith.

Two-way players Jaylin Galloway and Ryan Rollins are on the roster as well.
Hugo Besson, a 23-year-old Frenchman who was the No. 58 pick in the 2022 draft and traded to the Bucks for cash, will make his second straight summer league appearance for the team.
“We would like for him to come over, if possible,” Bucks assistant general manager Milt Newton said after the second round of the 2024 draft. “But the plan for him has always been for him to develop and we have to weigh it against whether or not he can make our team right now, which we don’t think he can, and losing opportunities over in Europe. And so, we’re always going to keep in touch, but make sure that he’s okay with a good place to play over in Europe if it comes to that.”
The Bucks currently have one open spot for its 15-person roster.
The following players (in alphabetical order) are on the initial summer league roster:
