Al Horford (Boston Celtics > Golden State Warriors)
October 2025
Al Horford ended his long Boston tenure to join Golden State on a two-year, $5.7m taxpayer midlevel deal. The 38-year-old center cited the opportunity to compete alongside Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Jimmy Butler as key to his decision.
Boston’s roster reset after Jayson Tatum’s Achilles injury and subsequent departures created an opening for Horford to move. Steve Kerr praised his versatility as a shooting big who fits seamlessly in multiple lineups. Horford acknowledged the move was difficult but called it “the obvious choice.”
