Al Horford Stat Projections Signal What Warriors Could Expect

For the first time since 2020-2021, Al Horford is going to suit up for another team. The veteran NBA big man just wrapped up his final season with the Boston Celtics. He became a free agent and was linked to the Golden State Warriors in the opening hours of free agency. The Warriors didn’t pick up Horford right out of the gate. As they were looking to solve the Jonathan Kuminga situation, the Warriors weren’t sure about the space they would have, as they were negotiating several different deals for Kuminga. Just a couple of days before Kuminga inked his two-year deal, Horford officially agreed to join the Warriors. Now, the contract is signed, and Horford is suiting up for Golden State in training camp. Basketball Reference put together some projections based on per 36 minutes for Horford’s first season with the Warriors. With shooting, Horford is projected to attempt 9.7 shots per game, draining 44 percent of his shots from the field. As a stretch-five, Horford is predicted to attempt 6.3 threes per game. H
