Hawks To Sign Austin Daye To Multi-Year Deal 

Post#1 » by Laimbeer » Sat Apr 4, 2015 12:23 am

The Atlanta Hawks plan on signing Austin Daye to a multi-year contract.

Daye's second 10-day contract expired on Friday.

“Austin has done really well and we feel good about having him with us,” Mike Budenholzer said following practice Friday afternoon. “We’ll have to make a decision. I would say he’s in a very good place.”

Daye is averaging 3.0 points and 1.4 rebounds in 6.6 minutes. He also appeared in 26 games with the Spurs earlier this season.

He's shooting a lot from three and hitting 36% of those and grabbing 8 boards per 36. Poor man's stretch four apparently.

I actually wouldn't have minded picking him up to play the three earlier in the yr. we all know he can stroke it from 3, sometimes catch fire

Perhaps they should win something first?
