Have the Atlanta Hawks been able to count on backup center and forward Mike Muscala this season? How does he stack up with similar players that fill his particular role around the league? Let’s check in on “Moose” to see what he’s been up to.
The 6’11” Muscala is probably one of head coach Mike Budenholzer’s favorite players. The product of Bucknell University was selected 44th overall in the second round of the 2013 NBA draft by the Dallas Mavericks. He was acquired through trade by the Atlanta Hawks. He often goes by nicknames “Jaws”, “Musky”, or “Musk” according to the good people of Basketball Reference.
