ATLANTA (AP) -- The Atlanta Hawks have signed free agent center Etan Thomas to add bulk in the frontcourt.
The 6-foot-10 Thomas spent most of his career with the Washington Wizards but finished last season with Oklahoma City. He's averaged 5.8 point and 4.8 rebounds per game over his eight-year career, which includes 74 starts.
Hawks coach Larry Drew says Thomas will add veteran leadership and physical toughness.
Terms of the contract were not released.
