Jazz acquire Shelvin Mack from Atlanta
The Utah Jazz announced today that the team has acquired guard Shelvin Mack from the Atlanta Hawks, pending the outcome of a physical, as part of a three-team trade with the Hawks and Chicago Bulls.
As part of the deal, the Jazz traded a future second-round pick to the Bulls, who also received guard Justin Holiday from Atlanta while sending the Hawks guard Kirk Hinrich.
Mack (6-3, 203, Butler) has appeared in 24 games for the Hawks this season, averaging 3.9 points and 1.6 assists in 7.5 minutes of action.
During his first two seasons at Butler, Mack teamed with current Jazzman Gordon Hayward, as the pair led Butler to the school’s first ever Final Four and an appearance in the 2010 title game.
