ZAZA PACHULIA RUMORS

At the start of the season, the Atlanta Hawks boasted decent depth at the center position. Start with All-Star Al Horford.

Third on the depth chart was 7-footer Jason Collins, whose defense on Orlandos Dwight Howard proved instrumental in the Hawks playoff victory over their Southeast...

Atlanta Hawks center Zaza Pachulia still plans on spending the lockout in Turkey - just with a different team. Pachulia will sign a deal to play with Galatasaray Istanbul, Sportando.net reported Friday. This summer, Pachulia denied reports that he had signed with Besiktas, a rival team in the Turkish League that has signed New Jersey Nets point guard Deron Williams. ...
