Al Horford is set to enter his 19th season in the NBA next season. For the last four seasons, he has been playing for the Boston Celtics, where he has achieved great success, including winning the NBA Championship in 2024, the first of his career. Last season with the Celtics, Horford averaged 9.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game.

Evan Sidery of Forbes has reported that Horford will make a decision between Golden State and the Nuggets. He also noted that the Warriors are the current favorite for the veteran big man, but that Denver would become a more interesting option if Jonas Valanciunas works his way to Europe.

NBA free agency is underway, and after a week, some notable names remain unsigned. That includes Jonathan Kuminga and Josh Giddey, who are both restricted free agents this summer.

Al Horford is considering ending his 18-year NBA career by retiring amid interest from the Warriors and Lakers to sign the 39-year-old veteran.

The Los Angeles Lakers are interested in Deandre Ayton and Al Horford.  The Lakers need a center for Luka Doncic and LeBron James.  Ayton and Horford are unrestricted free agents.  Ayton finalized a contract buyout with the Portland Trail Blazers to become a free agent.

According to Marc Grandi, the Warriors have a handshake deal with Al Horford to join the roster, and a decision on Jonathan Kuminga has put a hold on its progress.

The Golden State Warriors might have a reasonable answer in the front court if they fail to land former Celtics big man Al Horford. The post Warriors Linked to 5-Time All-Star Forward as Al Horford Alternative appeared first on Heavy Sports.
