Quin Snyder is the next head coach of the Hawks, the team announced Sunday night. He will be introduced at a news conference on Monday.
“I am thrilled to go back to Atlanta as the next head coach of the Hawks,” Snyder said in a statement released by the team. “(General manager) Landry (Fields) has a tremendous reputation as an incredibly bright, high character, high quality individual and it was quickly evident that we share a passion and commitment to building a winning team with a strong foundation and high standards. I am excited to collaborate with Landry to create a successful program that devoted Hawks fans are proud of and cheer for and am grateful to Tony, Jami and the Ressler family for this opportunity. My family and I are looking forward to immersing ourselves in the community and calling Atlanta home.”
According to ESPN, which first reported the agreement, Snyder will sign a five-year deal.
