The Atlanta Hawks today signed free agent center Zaza Pachulia to a contract, according to Executive Vice President/General Manager Billy Knight. Per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. The Hawks originally submitted an offer sheet on Pachulia to the Milwaukee Bucks on August 3, and the Bucks elected not to match the offer.
?Zaza is a young player who gives us size in the middle, and shows surprising toughness for his age," said Knight. "He has filled an important role off the bench during his brief NBA career and we feel he will continue to show tremendous progress in the future."
