Hawks to introduce Ilyasova, Dedmon on Friday
The Hawks will hold a news conference Friday to announce two of their free-agent signings — Ersan Ilyasova and Dewayne Dedmon.
The players have not officially signed with the team, but will do so before the afternoon conference.
Ilyasova agreed to a one-year, $6 million. The forward was acquired in a February trade with the 76ers. He played in 26 games for the Hawks after the trade and averaged 10.4 points and 5.2 rebounds.
Dedmon agreed to a two-year, $14 million deal with the Hawks as an unrestricted free agent after playing for the Spurs last season. The center averaged 5.1 points and 6.5 rebounds in 76 games last season.
