EL SEGUNDO, Calif. - The Atlanta Hawks announced today the team has signed South Bay Lakers guard Chaundee Brown Jr. to a two-way contract. Brown's NBA call-up marks the eleventh of the season for South Bay, the second most of any team in the G League, and the 46th in team history.

Brown played collegiately at Wake Forest (2017-20) before transferring to Michigan (2020-21).
