You’d have to have a good “Poker Face” to let on that Al Horford’s injury wasn’t troublesome to your fantasy squad. I’m not saying that Zaza Pachulia is going to be the answer to all of your needs, but he can help.
.
Zaza has stepped up his game since Horford went down, averaging 31.0 minutes, 10.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 0.5 blocks.

He only played 20 minutes in three of his first ten games, averaging 10.0 points and 8.0 rebounds suggesting that his two game spurt is...Read Full Story
It’s time for the Magic to go home, at least that’s how the Hawks are thinking. They have the Magic on the ropes and down 3-1. The Magic are near elimination and they get Jason Richardson back, but the Hawks get Zaza Pachulia back. That’s the guy who lives in Dwight’s head in case you forgot.
In the world of Orlando basketball they haven’t been in this position before, not like this. Usually, when they’ve gone out of the playoffs it’s been to a team that was clearly better than them...Read Full Story
Larry Drew wants the Atlanta Hawks to pick up the pace this season and run even in their half-court attack. Drew, the first-year head coach, drove the point home on the first day of training camp last week. He took the team to the Georgia Tech track for timed mile runs. It was clear from the start this would be a different training camp for the Hawks. "We had never done that before," said center Zaza Pachulia , who is entering his sixth season in Atlanta, after Wednesday's practice. "It was...Read Full Story
Intense Playoff Basketball At Its Finest
The NBA issued Magic shooting guard Jason Richardson and Hawks center Zaza Pachulia suspensions for Game 4 on Sunday, for their actions during the final minutes of Game 3 of Atlanta’s 88-84 victory.
The foul play between the two players happened with 2:22 remaining in the 4th quarter, after Pachulia and Magic center Dwight Howard were battling under the hoop following Dwight swinging his elbow after being fouled by Pachulia. Richardson confronted...Read Full Story
I really, really thought the Magic would sweep Atlanta . Then, Dwight Howard scored 46 points and the Magic lost. Then the Hawks hung tough in a game two loss. Well, game three was a win for the Hawks — in Orlando .
See, you know that Orlando is in trouble when my friends are posting Facebook statuses that say things like:
ZAZA!!!!!
and
Zaza is a stud.
Seriously. They did. You know what else is crazy? They don’t just enjoy saying Zaza’s name (and, frankly, who doesn’t), but...Read Full Story
Sometimes fantasy basketball owners have to take a risk when it comes to picking up stats in a given category. With so many good rebounders now out with injuries, most notably Anderson Varejao just going down for the Cleveland Cavaliers, there are some ...
Pachulia played heavy minutes tonight (42), and was able to limit Dwight Howard to just 18 points. The minutes are there, and those in need of a big man could do worse than Zaza.
11:41 0-2 Dwight Howard makes a hook shot from 5 feet out. 11:25 Zaza Pachulia makes a jump shot from 14 feet out. Joe Johnson with the assist. 2-2 11:00 2-2 Zaza Pachulia steals the ball from Dwight Howard. 10:48 Zaza Pachulia makes a layup shot from 2 feet out.
Collins, who has called the injury a "moderate" sprain, is expected to miss at least another week. The injuries left Zaza Pachulia as the only true center on the roster. Ivan Johnson, a 6-foot-8 undrafted power forward, has been playing behind Pachulia but ...
Pachulia added six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 29 minutes. His physical play inside is a major reason the Hawks have survived Al Horford's season-ending injury to this point, though his real-life value far exceeds his fantasy impact.
The entry titled "Did the weather fury affect you?," and any of the comments about it. We were in the middle of Centennial Park looking at the Illumination photography exhibit and all of sudden it started hailing and the winds picked up. About 30 of ...
