Warriors may have chose wrong Boston center - a painful rejection only getting worse

The Golden State Warriors finally secured Al Horford in free agency this past offseason, but he wasn't the only former Boston Celtics big man that Mike Dunleavy Jr. and the front office had their eyes on during the summer.

Luke Kornet was also reportedly a target of the Warriors as they looked to solidify their center rotation. Based on the production of both players through the first quarter of the season, perhaps the franchise should have focused on a move for Kornet first and foremost.

Luke Kornet is having more respective impact than Al Horford

According to ESPN's Anthony Slater just prior to the season opener in October, Horford was the primary target for Golden State, not to mention Kornet was out of their price range and would have rejected them anyway after signing a four-year, $40.
