The workout, which begins at 11 a.m., is open to the public but fans were asked to RSVP at the team website. Merchandise featuring the Hawks’ new color scheme and logos will be available for purchase. There will also be fan activity stations on the arena concourse.

The practice is be the first time for fans to see the new roster and new court design. The team released a rendering of the court earlier this month.
