Dwight Howard has agreed to a three-year, $70.5 million deal with the Atlanta Hawks, a source told ESPN's Chris Broussard, confirming a first report by The Vertical.
Howard had a productive meeting with the Hawks on Friday, a source previously said. It was the Atlanta native's first meeting.
"It was a really, really, really good meeting," the source said. "Very impressive. Dwight's going to look at all his options. But it went very, very well."
Howard, who also had drawn interest from the Boston Celtics, had been scheduled to speak with other teams by phone Friday, the source said.
A source previously told ESPN's Calvin Watkins that Howard was looking for a contract beginning at $24 million per year.
