Paul Millsap Named to Fourth Consecutive Eastern FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 1/26/17 CONTACT: Garin Narain, Jon Steinberg or Jason Roose, Hawks Media Relations (404) 878-3800 PAUL MILLSAP NAMED TO FOURTH CONSECUTIVE EASTERN CONFERENCE ALL-STAR TEAM Millsap Becomes just the 5 th Player in Franchise History to Receive All-Star Honors in Four Straight Seasons ATLANTA, GA – Paul Millsap has been selected by the Eastern Conference coaches to his fourth consecutive All-Star team, and he will compete in the 2017 NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, Feb. 19 in his home state at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, LA. The game will air on TNT and ESPN Radio. “I want to thank my teammates and coaches for putting me in a position to be successful. Without their support, I know I wouldn’t have this opportunity,” Millsap said. “I also want to thank the Eastern Conference coaches for appreciating my game and recognizing our team’s success. It’s humbling to be honored again.” “I’m thrilled and proud that the Eastern Conference coaches again recognized Paul as an All-Star,” said Hawks President of Basketball Operations/Head Coach Mike Budenholzer. “To make it four straight seasons is a special accomplishment. I think this honor signifies not only how good he is individually, but also how he makes all of those around him better. Paul deserves to share the All-Star stage with the elite players in our game.” This marks Millsap’s fourth consecutive All-Star appearance, and he joins Dominique Wilkins, Bob Pettit, Lou Hudson and Joe Johnson as the only players in franchise history to earn All-Star honors in four straight seasons. Millsap is averaging 18.0 points, 8.1 rebounds (tied for 24th in the NBA), 3.8 assists, 1.5 steals (22 nd ) and 1.1 blocks in 34.0 minutes with 12 double-doubles, leading the team in scoring, while ranking second in rebounding, assists, steals, blocks and double-doubles. He is one of four players in the NBA (Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokounmpo, DeMarcus Cousins) averaging at least 18.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks. On Dec. 9 at Milwaukee, he posted 23 points, a season-high tying 14 rebounds, six assists, a season-best tying three blocks and one steal, the only player in the NBA to accumulate at least those numbers in a game this year. He had 18 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, four steals and three blocks at Indiana (Nov. 23), one-of-two players (Anthony Davis) to record at least that line this season and the first Hawk to do so since Josh Smith on 2/15/12 (at Phoenix). Since signing with the Hawks on July 10, 2013, he has averaged 17.4 points, 8.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.2 blocks (.465 FG%, .342 3FG%, .749 FT%). # TrueToAtlanta # With a bold identity and strong new ownership, the Atlanta Hawks Basketball Club and Philips Arena remain committed to making Atlantans proud on the court and off. The 2014-15 Southeast Division Champions, the Hawks have made the postseason in nine consecutive seasons and reached the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in franchise history in 2015. Off the court, the organization has built a culture of inclusion, diversity and innovation, all with a touch of Southern Hospitality. It continues into the community where the organization builds bridges through basketball, whether by constructing and refurbishing courts in Atlanta neighborhoods, providing scholarships to our basketball camps, or surprising and delighting our fans with unique Atlanta Hawks experiences.

  • Guest Speaker Dominique Wilkins
    ATLANTA, GA GUEST SPEAKER DOMINIQUE WILKINS Vice President of Basketball and Special Advisor to the CEO The most celebrated player to ever put on a Hawks uniform and represented in front of State Farm Arena by an 18,500-pound bronze statue erected in March 2015. Hall-of-Famer Dominique Wilkins is the Hawks' Vice President of Basketball and Special Advisor to the CEO. Wilkins works in various management functions within the organization's basketball and business areas, and as the team’s analyst for the Hawks broadcasts on FOX Sports Southeast. Wilkins is responsible for advising the senior management team on basketball-related issues and working as a strong voice in the community. The 6-8 forward, who concluded his NBA career with 26,668 points, is the 13th all-time leading scorer in league history and his 24.8 career scoring average is also 13th on the all-time charts. Wilkins' 23,292 points with the Hawks are the franchise's best, and he ranks second in team history in steals (1,245), fourth in rebounds (6,119), seventh in blocked shots (588) and eighth in assists (2,321). One of the league's true marquee players, his outstanding contributions on the court were recognized by the organization in January 2001 when he became the third player in club history to have his uniform number (#21) retired, joining Hawks legends Bob Pettit and Lou Hudson. Familiar with area sports fans from his collegiate days at the University of Georgia, Wilkins entered the 1982 NBA Draft after his junior season with the Bulldogs.

  • PUBLICATION: Twitter DATE: 1/4/14
    PUBLICATION: Twitter DATE: 1/4/14 Is Kyle Korver the best shooter ever? If not, then who is? Tweeted by Sam Smith Bulls ready for Korver? Best ever shooter? Will the Bulls be looking at immortality Saturday when they play the Atlanta Hawks at the United Center? Will the Bulls be defending the greatest shooter in the history of the NBA, Kyle Korver? It’s certainly a debatable issue given the various criteria to rate shooting in the NBA. But no one can claim what Kyle Korver can. Korver has made a three-point shot in 102 consecutive NBA games. And no one in the NBA is officially even close anymore since the former Bull blew by Dana Barros’ 89 several weeks ag “It’s pretty remarkable,” Kerr said of Korver’s streak. “I could never have done that. He’s bigger and stronger than I was with the shot. He shoots better off screens. I was more a spot up guy, so I didn’t get as many looks.” But does that make Korver the best shooter in the history of the NBA? After all, if no one has ever been as consistent in three point shooting how can they make the claim they are superior? Steve Kerr doesn’t want to settle the debate, though some can make the case for Kerr. Because there it is in the NBA record book: Highest three-point shooting percentage for a career: .454, Steve Kerr. But Kerr said in an interview not to put him in the class with Korver. “It’s pretty remarkable,” Kerr said of Korver’s streak.
