Hawks owners informed general manager Rick Sund his contract will be extended through the 2011-12 season, according to a person with knowledge of the decision.

Sund’s return was expected after the Hawks snapped a 15-game losing streak in the second round of the playoffs. His major decisions include replacing coach Mike Woodson with Larry Drew and signing guard Joe Johnson to a $123.7 million free-agent contract.

Hawks spokesman Arthur Triche said the team had no comment on Sund’s contract situation. Sund, who was traveling, did not return a message.
