Report: Al Horford has narrowed down his decision to Boston or Washington
So you're telling me there's a chance? Could Al Horford be close to signing with the Celtics?
League source says C's meet with Horford went "really well." Added that ATL task of clearing salary to bring him back up against the clock.— Mark Murphy (@Murf56) July 2, 2016
Then the Vertical's Adrian Wojnarowski dropped this bomb:
Sources on @TheVertical: Boston and Washington have emerged as frontrunners to sign All-Star forward Al Horford. https://t.co/uS1t0sTDl6— Adrian Wojnarowski (@WojVerticalNBA) July 2, 2016
Signing Horford before today's meeting with Kevin Durant would be a nice added bonus for the Celts to bring to the table.
According the Atlanta Journal Constitution, the decision should come tonight:
Al Horford has informed the Hawks that he will make his final free-agent decision tonight. Celtics and Wizards are currently in the lead.
