The Hawks will open play in the Las Vegas Summer League on Aug. 8 against the Celtics. The Hawks will play a total of five games.

All 30 NBA teams will be represented in the 10-day competition that features 75 games on the campus of the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. After every team plays four games, the two teams with the best records from the first four games will meet in the championship game at 9 p.m. Aug. 17 on ESPN. The 28 teams that do not play in the championship game will play a fifth game Aug. 16 or Aug. 17.

All games will air live on television on ESPN networks or NBA TV.

The Hawks will leave for Las Vegas and a mini training camp next week. The roster will be released at a later date, but likely will include the two players selected in the NBA draft Thursday and current players Cam Reddish, Skylar Mays and Nathan Knight.
