  • Tolliver Calls Game-Winning Rebound in Hawks Win Over Bucks
    Tolliver calls game-winning rebound in Hawks win over Bucks By Chris Vivlamore The Atlanta Journal-Constitution MILWAUKEE — Anthony Tolliver called it. Not a game-winning shot but a game-winning rebound. Tolliver’s rebound of a missed free throw by teammate Dahntay Jones with 22.4 seconds remaining preserved the Hawks’ 104-99 come-from-behind victory over the Bucks Sunday afternoon. With a one-point lead, 100-99 after Jones’ first free throw, Tolliver looked at Jeff Teague and told his teammate a missed shot would be all his. “Yeah, I told him right before it happened, ‘I am going to get this rebound,’” Tolliver said. “I just tried to analyze the situation. I knew he has missed a few free throws earlier so I just wanted to be aggressive toward the rebound. I saw an opportunity. They didn’t box me out and I jumped and it came to me.” Tolliver called timeout after gathering the loose ball forcing the Bucks to foul. Al Horford and Teague each made two free throws in the closing seconds for the final margin. The rebound may not have been the biggest play of the game by Tolliver. He set up Jones’ free throws with a steal seconds earlier. With the game tied at 99-99 after the Hawks erased a five- point deficit with 2:45 remaining and a Bradley Center crowd cheering wildly, Tolliver tipped a pass intended for J.J. Redick that Jones gathered before being fouled. “I was face guarding, being up, on J.J. Redick,” Tolliver said.

  • TWO MAJOR TRANSACTIONS SIGNIFICANTLY RESHAPE HAWKS FUTURE Atlanta Conveys to Brooklyn the Contract of Joe Johnson for Five Playe
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, July 11, 2012 CONTACT: Arthur Triche, Jon Steinberg or Jason Roose, Hawks Media Relations (404) 878-3800 TWO MAJOR TRANSACTIONS SIGNIFICANTLY RESHAPE HAWKS FUTURE Atlanta conveys to Brooklyn the contract of Joe Johnson for five players, draft picks and other considerations; also obtains Devin Harris from Utah for Marvin Williams ATLANTA, GA ----- Atlanta Hawks President of Basketball Operations/General Manager Danny Ferry today announced the team has traded Joe Johnson to the Brooklyn Nets for five players, a first- and second-round pick and other draft considerations, and also acquired Devin Harris from the Utah Jazz for Marvin Williams. In return for Johnson, the Hawks get guards Anthony Morrow, Jordan Farmar and DeShawn Stevenson, and forwards Johan Petro and Jordan Williams. The two picks are Houston’s 2013 first-round pick and the Nets’ second-round pick in 2017. “The Hawks want to thank Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams for their contributions on the court and in the community,” said Ferry. “We felt with the team that we had, we were probably going to maintain the status quo and not be able to reach a championship level. We now have the opportunity to work within the new CBA in a better way that will allow us to move forward and be opportunistic in the future as we work to build a sustainable championship level team.” Morrow returns to the Atlanta area after playing his collegiate ball at Georgia Tech. Undrafted in 2008, the 6-5 guard was signed as a free agent by the Golden State Warriors where he spent two seasons, before he was traded to the Nets for a future second-round pick in July 2010.

    The UCLA baseball program has sent eight players to play for the USA Baseball National Team a total of 10 times, beginning with the selection of Shane Mack in 1984. Most recently, former UCLA shortstop Brandon Crawford helped the U.S. National Team capture its second consecutive FISU (International University Sports Federation) World Championship in the summer of 2006. Crawford’s selection in 2006 marked the first time a Bruin had been named since Karp, a right-handed pitcher, competed for the national team in 2000. The 2006 U.S. National Team finished its summer campaign with a 28-2-1 mark and successfullyl defended its gold medal won in the 2004 FISU Tournament in Taiwan.
