Jarrett Jack was waived by the Brooklyn Nets right before free agency started. It was both a good and bad thing for the veteran point guard.
Jack being waived by the Nets is not a great sign, especially after suffering a season-ending injury. Still, Jack has a market in teams that need a veteran presence both on the bench and on the court. Jack is a no-nonsense type of player who jut wants to win. His new deal with the Atlanta Hawks, his hometown team, could be exactly what Jack was looking for.
Following from Shams Charania of The Vertical on Yahoo! Sports.
