What teams are interested in Horford?

NBA insider Michael Scotto reported the list of six teams interested in Horford:

  • Celtics
  • Lakers
  • Warriors
  • Nuggets
  • Cavs
  • Knicks

This list mainly consists of playoff teams that are looking to contend next season.

Another title could make or break Horford being a Hall of Famer or not at the end of his career.

It seemed unlikely that he'd leave the Celtics this late in his career, but several factors will play into his next decision.

It's doubtful that money will play a significant role in the decision, especially with many of the teams interested in the luxury tax already.

Horford doesn't seem close to a decision yet, so we likely won't find out where he's headed until after day one.

Horford averaged 9.0 PPG and 6.2 RPG in the 2024-25 NBA season.
