After hearing Brad Stevens' update on Al Horford's future, it doesn't sound like the NBA free agent center will be returning to the Boston Celtics.

Bradley Beal rumors were exciting, it seems like the Phoenix Suns' star is looking to join a different Western Conference team.

Al Horford is reportedly weighing retirement as one of the few remaining unrestricted free agents on the NBA market, according to The Boston Globe's Adam Himmelsbach.

SAN FRANCISCO — As Western Conference contenders move heaven and earth to sign superstars, and teams maneuver via trade and free agency to add talent, one franchise has remained stuck in place. The Warriors have yet to make a single free agent signing or trade for a veteran NBA player, their only move thus far being a pair of draft-day swaps.

We look at some Golden State Warriors free agency targets. In the event there is no Al Horford-Warriors deal, they will desperately need to sign one of these big men.

According to Anthony Slater of The Athletic, veteran big man Al Horford is a "preferred target" for the Warriors at the start of free agency.

According to Marc Grandi, the Warriors have a handshake deal with Al Horford to join the roster, and a decision on Jonathan Kuminga has put a hold on its progress.

The Golden State Warriors might have a reasonable answer in the front court if they fail to land former Celtics big man Al Horford. The post Warriors Linked to 5-Time All-Star Forward as Al Horford Alternative appeared first on Heavy Sports.
