Josh Childress
Age: 27 | 2009-10 Team: Olympiakos (Greece) | Position: SF
\'09-10 Euroleage Stats: 15.2 ppg, 52.3% FG, 4.8 rpg
Status: Restricted (Hawks) -- $4.8 million qualifying offer
Olympiakos\' financial issues, likely changes in Greek tax laws and one-too-many unruly fans have Childress primed for a return to the U.S. (his deadline to opt out is July 15). Lots of teams will be in the market for a versatile swingman who can defend and provide instant energy off the bench. The Hawks, who have retained Childress\' rights, are one of them. Atlanta could bring back Childress in a reserve role or sign him to potentially replace Joe Johnson.

The possibility of Joe Johnson leaving the Hawks has nudged the spotlight toward Josh Childress and what he might do given the uncertain economic situation in Greece and the chance to play for a team that should make the playoffs next year.  Childress is ranked by SI as the #15 top potential free agent.
