Hawks Bring Korver Back, Get Millsap

The Atlanta Hawks have reached a few agreements with players over the past few days to upgrade their lineup. They also re-signed an important player from last year's team.
First off, they re-signed Kyle Korver to a four-year contract. After being disappointed about joining the Hawks before last season, Korver apparently liked playing for them enough to return, especially for an extended period of time. He was vital on the team last season and was fourth on the team with 810 points scored. He averaged 10.9 points a game and will have a chance to continue his streak of 73 consecutive regular-season games with at least one three-pointer in a game with Atlanta.
Second, they signed two former Utah Jazz players, Paul Millsap and DeMarre Carroll. They both were signed to two-year deals. Millsap averaged 14.6 points and seven rebounds for the Jazz last season. His signing most likely signals the end of the Josh Smith ERA in Atlanta. Carroll averaged six points and 2.8 rebounds off the bench for the Jazz last season. He will come off the bench most likely for the Hawks, but he provides the intensity and sportsmanship that GM Danny Ferry looks for in his players.

The Hawks have made a few moves already this off season, by re-signing Kyle Korver and signing Paul Millsap (above) and DeMarre Carroll away from the Utah Jazz.
