Dwight Howard may be coming home to Atlanta. Or not.
The NBA free-agent market opened for business Friday. There were plenty of deals reached around the league on the first day. For the Hawks – and those players who might be coming or going – it was a day of meetings.
The Hawks met with Dwight Howard to discuss a possible return home for the free-agent center. Hawks starters Al Horford and Kent Bazemore met with the Rockets at different times as they began to explore their outside opportunities.
A contingent from the Hawks met with Howard at a Buckhead restaurant.
