The Hawks announced Friday afternoon they have signed guard Tahjere McCall.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but according to a source, McCall agreed to an Exhibit 10 deal, which means he can attend training camp and be eligible for the Skyhawks, the Hawks’ G-League affiliate.

McCall played on the Hawks’ summer league team, averaging 11 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.5 steals in 31 minutes per game. He started four games. McCall played two seasons at Niagara before concluding his college career at Tennessee State -- his senior season, he averaged 14.3 points, 5.1 assists, 5 rebounds and 2.8 steals per game.

This move completes the Hawks’ training-camp roster with 20 players, which is the maximum.
