How Al Horford’s extension will impact the Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics have veteran big man Al Horford locked up for what will likely be the rest of his NBA career after the ball club successfully negotiated an extension with the Florida alumnus for two years, $20 million.

The Dominican center will help the Celtics even as his play likely starts to dip a bit as he plays out a contract that will finish in his age 38 season, which will be his 17th season in the league by that point. What does this mean for the looming restricted free agency of reserve forward Grant Williams and shorter-term teambuilding concerns?

The host of the CLNS Media “Garden Report” podcast Bobby Manning recently broke it down in layman’s terms in a recent episode.

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what he had to say.
