Al Horford finally opened up about his decision to leave the Boston Celtics this summer, and it was absolutely gutwrenching. The now Golden State Warriors center shared this thought process with The Athletic’s Nick Friedell, pinpointing the opportunity to win as a top priority.

“I think that where Boston was as a team, even though I called them my home and everything was there for me, they just weren’t in a position to offer me the opportunity that I wanted,” Horford told Friedell.
