"The big man has long been linked to the Warriors, with the team waiting until it re-signed restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga to complete the move with Horford. Warrior mainstay Draymond Green theoretically spoke about him at the team's media day, while coach Steve Kerr raved about the team's improved spacing on Tuesday in a not-so-subtle nod toward Horford's expected addition."
"The center, 39, spent most of the past seven seasons in Boston, where he lost to the Warriors in the 2022 Finals and helped the Celtics beat Dallas in the 2024 championship series. He has been one of the league's best stretch bigs since entering the league in 2007 as the No. 3 pick in the 2007 NBA Draft. The prolific jump shooter has shot 37.8% from the 3-point line on 3.9 attempts per game."
