With the injury to Jock Landale, the Hawks decided to add a familiar center as the team prepares for postseason play.

Arizona’s only scheduled game this season on linear television just happened to coincide with the men’s basketball team playing in its first Final Four in 25 years, which likely meant very few fans ended up tuning in (or showing up in person).
