The Atlanta Journal-Constitution is reporting that the Hawks players, most notibly Toni Kukoc, are supporting the decision by Michael Jordan to come back.  "Good for him if he does that, if he doesn't have anything better to do," Kukoc said. "He probably misses basketball and feels like he has something to offer."  Dynamic guard Jason Terry added that he supported a Jordan comeback, as it would fulfil a childhood dream of his to play against the greatest.

Theo Ratliff, Alan Henderson and Shareef Abdur-Rahim all had different perspectives on the comeback, all positive, noting that Michael Jordan's second return to the NBA will be for the fans and will also help the league.
