“We’re thrilled to be able to bring Kris back to Atlanta,” Budenholzer said.  “He quickly fit in with our team last season and played an important role on the court and in the locker room.”

“Jarrett brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our backcourt,” Budenholzer said.  “His leadership and versatility will be important to our team.”

The 6’3 guard has also appeared in 24 playoff games (four starts), and averaged 13.1 points, 4.0 assists and 3.9 rebounds in 28.8 minutes (.488 FG%, .870 FT%).
