2015 Atlanta Hawks player review: Mike Muscala

After a sleepy rookie season, Mike Muscala revealed his potential with a strong follow-up in 2014-2015.

The now 23-year-old big man was largely considered an afterthought from the moment he arrived in the Atlanta Hawks organization. Muscala, fresh out of Bucknell, was acquired by the team on the night of the 2013 NBA Draft, but his rights were a "throw-in" of sorts in a trade that involved Lucas Nogueira (and Jared Cunningham).

From there, Muscala began his professional career in Europe, providing strong minutes in the ACB league in Spain.
