Pittman was waived by the Hawks on Tuesday, Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Pittman signed a camp deal with the Hawks, Chirs Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
A second-round pick of the Heat in 2010, Pittman has struggled to carve out a niche in the NBA. The former Texas standout has appeared in just 50 games over four seasons, last playing two games for the Hawks in 2013-14 before signing with Houston, where he was subsequently waived. Pittman has struggled with weight issues in the past and is unlikely to make the final roster.

Rockets sign C Dexter Pittman.
The team will waive an unhealthy Greg Smith and to get some more depth. The Rockets have been playing Donatas Motiejunas out of position at center in the past week, so it's currently a thin area with Dwight Howard (ankle) still out. Obviously, Pittman should not be picked up in fantasy leagues.

Hawks sign F/C Dexter Pittman.
The Hawks are toast in the frontcourt tonight with Paul Millsap, Pero Antic and Gustavo Ayon, so the team waived Jared Cunningham to get another big man for tonight. If Pittman does get on the court, it should be interesting to see what kind of shape he's in. It's only a 10-day deal.

The Heat have reportedly traded Dexter Pittman and a second-round draft pick to the Grizzlies, in exchange for a trade exception.
The trade deadline has been whisper quiet and this Pittman deal has zero impact in fantasy leagues, as he'll simply reprise his end-of-bench role for a new team. The Heat now have an open roster spot, and the trade exception gives them additional flexibility in future trade talks.
