Al Horford is a foundational piece of the Boston Celtics core. He has been influential and impactful in his two stretches with the team. However, due to his no-frills style of play, many overlook his contributions and his winning mentality. However, you don’t carve out a 17-year (and counting) NBA career for nothing. Those contracts aren’t given out lightly.
Until this season, Horford had been a starter in the NBA. Even now, at the age of 37, he could easily be the primary big man in Boston’s rotation, and they would still be a contending team. As such, there is a growing belief that should Horford win a championship before the end of his career, he will likely be inducted into the Naismith Hall of Fame.
In a recent episode of the “Devine Intervention” podcast, host Dan Devine was joined by comedian Josh Gondelman, where they discussed Horford’s credentials and whether he will be immortalized in basketball history.
