With the Milwaukee Bucks set to take Las Vegas by storm, along with the rest of the NBA, let’s meet all the players that will make up their 2019 NBA Summer League roster.

Having got caught up in this year’s free agency hoopla earlier in the week, your Milwaukee Bucks are about to return to action. Well, sort of.

For the first time in 40 days, the Bucks will play competitive basketball this Friday afternoon when they kick off their Summer League run in Las Vegas against the Philadelphia 76ers.

From there, the Bucks will meet against the Atlanta Hawks, the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Chinese National Team over the next week-plus.

If the Bucks don’t qualify for the top 8 spots for the tournament portion of the event following the preliminary round, they’ll play one consolation game to close out their run in Sin City.

This year’s Bucks Summer League roster is headlined by their 2017 draft class in third-year players Sterling Brown and D.J. Wilson.

Along with that, the roster sports some familiar faces with two-way player Bonzie Colson II and Wisconsin Herd guard Xavier Munford on board, the latter being a two-way player once for the organization during the 2017-18 season.

One notable exception to the Bucks’ Summer League roster will be their first round pick from the 2018 NBA Draft, Donte DiVincenzo. Bucks general manager Jon Horst noted that it’s purely precautionary with DiVincenzo, who’s still working his way back from his season-ending injury, as Matt Velazquez of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel relayed again after the team’s release of the Summer League roster:

Even so, you never know what kind of gem the Bucks could find as there are promising undrafted players and G Leaguers littered throughout their roster. That may serve as a more timely reminder, especially after seeing how Christian Wood‘s strong Vegas showings led to him making the team’s roster to start last season.

So without further ado, let’s dig into who will comprise this year’s Bucks Summer League roster, starting with third-year Bucks wing Sterling Brown.
