The Knicks finally announced their complete roster for the 2024 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, and fans were pleased to see that all four of New York's draft picks will make their way out West. 

First-rounder Pacome Dadiet and second-round selections Tyler Kolek, Kevin McCullar and Ariel Hukporti will suit up in the Vegas heat. They will be joined by two-way players Jacob Toppin and Duane Washington Jr. After it had been rumored the past few days, we got confirmation that Lithuanian point guard Rokas Jokubaitis would also be part of the squad. 

The rest of the roster features Dmytro Skapintsev, Alex O'Connell, Damion Baugh, Devin Cannady, Samkelo Cele, Obadiah Noel, Justin Lewis, Alan Griffin, Kamani Johnson and Amari Kelly.

Dice Yoshimoto, who has served as an assistant under Tom Thibodeau for the past few years, will coach the club.

New York plays their first of five games tomorrow afternoon and then will be back in action on Tuesday:
Saturday, July 13, 5:00 p.m. EST - Knicks vs. Charlotte Hornets (ESPN2)
Tuesday, July 16, 4:30 p.m. EST - Knicks vs. Brooklyn Nets (NBA TV)
Wednesday, July 17, 3:30 p.m. EST - Knicks vs. Sacramento Kings (NBA TV)
Friday, July 19, 7:00 p.m. EST - Knicks vs. Detroit Pistons (ESPN)

As for what to look for beginning this weekend, it will be very interesting to see how the Knicks coaching staff splits up minutes at the point guard spot with both Kolek and Rokas on the roster.
