- On Wednesday night, the Atlanta Hawks acquired Jock Landale from the Utah Jazz for cash considerations as teams maneuvered ahead of Thursday's NBA trade deadline.

- Jock Landale, 30, averaged 11.3 points and 6.5 rebounds in 45 games, including 25 starts, for Memphis and was traded to Utah on Tuesday then to Atlanta one day later.
