The Atlanta Hawks are entering a rebuild and one step in that process is building up talent and assets. Mike Muscala could be one of those assets Atlanta builds up following the departure of Dwight Howard and Paul Millsap.
The young big man has spent four years in the NBA mostly in a reserve role as a stretch big. Now with some room cleared in the frontcourt, he could be starting alongside rookie John Collins and leading the Hawks youth movement.
Following comes from Shams Charania of The Vertical.
Free agent forward Mike Muscala has agreed to a two-year, $10M deal to stay with the Atlanta Hawks, league sources tell The Vertical.
