The Atlanta Hawks say they will decide early next week whether to invite Lloyd Daniels to training camp.

Daniels, 23, is a former high school star in New York whose career has been sidelined by drug abuse.

The 6-foot-9 Daniels averaged 31.2 points, 12.3 rebounds and 10 assists at Andrew Jackson High until quitting in February of 1986.

In May, 1989, Daniels was shot by two men who knocked on his door. Police blamed the shooting on an old drug debt, a legacy of Daniels’ problems with cocaine addiction.
