Al Horford Stuffs Kings with Record Performance

Celtics.com

BOSTON – Al Horford stood beyond the 3-point line, back to the basket, arms draped all over DeMarcus Cousins, as the final seconds of Friday’s game between the Celtics and Kings ticked away.

Sacramento trailed 95-92. The shot clock was off and the game clock trickled down from nine seconds… to eight… to seven.

Cousins had no option but to go for the tie. The only problem was that Horford was giving him no room to breath.

Sacramento’s star big man rose up for the potential game-tying shot, but could not even manage to bring the ball above his waist.
