Al Horford is reportedly deciding between retiring and playing, with at least four teams in the mix - and one that nearly signed him.

The Hawks are positioned to be a playoff contender next season with the additions of Kristaps Porziņģis, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Luke Kennard. With Trae Young and Jalen Johnson returning, Atlanta has a strong mix of young talent and veterans and a reportedly in the sweepstakes for Horford largely due to proximity to home.

The Golden State Warriors reportedly believed they were set to land Al Horford in free agency last week, though the veteran big man remains on the market.
