Earlier today the Spurs named Becky Hammon the head coach of the Vegas team and Will Hardy the head coach of the Utah team. After becoming the first female full-time assistant coach in the NBA, she follows that up by becoming the first female head coach of a Summer League team.
Here's the official release from the team:
SPURS ANNOUNCE 2015 SUMMER LEAGUE ROSTERS FOR UTAH AND LAS VEGAS
SAN ANTONIO (July 3, 2015) — The San Antonio Spurs today announced their rosters for both the 2015 Utah Jazz Summer League and the 2015 Las Vegas Summer League. The Jazz Summer League will take place from July 6-9 in Salt Lake City while the Las Vegas Summer League runs from July 10-20.
This year's rosters includes Spurs forward Kyle Anderson along with NBA veterans Will Cherry, Brandon Davies, Casper Ware and Nate Wolters.

In last year's Summer League the former UCLA Bruin started all six games for the Spurs, averaging 8.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.2 steals in 23.8 minutes.
Several Spurs draft picks will play in both leagues, including Livio Jean-Charles who San Antonio selected in the first round of the 2013 NBA draft with the 28th overall pick. San Antonio's 2015 second round draft pick (55th overall) Cady Lalanne will be on the roster along with Marcus Denmon who was selected by the Silver and Black with the 59th overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft.
