Is Sacramento the mystery Al Horford team?

The dots all connect.
By | 0 Comments | Jun 27, 2019

Al Horford will be a Sacramento King next season, I have proof.

Well, not proof, per se, but I have a wild string of events that I think could be convincing if I got the right jury. A jury made of people like my wife, who will glaze over and say “sure honey” when I start rambling about NBA conspiracies.

That kind of proof. So wrap your heads in tinfoil and join me on this journey of discovery.

It all started when Al Horford opted out of his contract. The immediate reporting was that Horford would negotiate a new deal with the Celtics.

But then, just 9 hours later, Horford and the Celtics were suddenly unable to agree on a number and Horford was going to enter free agency.

What happened in the meantime? What could have changed Horford’s mind? What happened right in the middle of those negotiations? I’m glad you asked.

BOOM

Sacramento convinced Harrison Barnes to opt our and get a new deal. That added cap space would be enough for the Kings to up their offer to Al Horford. And then, as if to confirm these suspicions, enter Marc Stein:

Now, you may be thinking “slow down Greg. This is crazy. There could be any number of teams interested in a player like Horford.” And you’re right. But at that kind of money there are only a few potential suitors, and Stein’s reporting eliminated the Pelicans.

Now, does this constitute proof? Perhaps not. It’s missing something. We need something to actually connect the Kings to Horford.

Enter Brian Windhorst:

There you have it. Proof.

Welcome to the Kings, Al!
