Perhaps the biggest hit the Boston Celtics took this offseason was losing all-star Al Horford in free agency. With the looming departure of Kyrie Irving inbound, it seemed Horford jumped really quick at the opportunity to make money on a highly talented team thinking that the Celtics' contending days were over for the time being. It's still unclear if Horford had known anything about the Kemba Walker situation and whether or not he would have stayed and worked something out if he did.
However, even though he won't be suiting up in green next season, Horford's impressive leadership qualities still shine as he continues to reach out in support of the young and upcoming Celtics.
