The Hawks want to extend the contract of big man Al Horford, but talks on an extension haven't yet begun.

Atlanta can extend him for up to five years and $82 million by Oct. 31 or tender him to make him a restricted free agent next summer.

"I haven't heard anything yet," Horford said.

"I think anything will start coming once training camp gets going. I am just kind of leaving to that to the owners and my representation and just seeing what happens. I am going to keep working hard and keep doing what I've been doing."
