Al Horford reached a milestone of the NBA playoffs

In a will for his longevity and consistency, the veteran of Boston Celtics, Al Horford, etched his name deeper into the NBA story.

After the Celtics' Game 3 victory on Sunday afternoon, the NBA celebrated Horford's latest milestone when he took 11th place on the playoff games ever with 194 appearances and exceeded Karl Malone and Danny Aing.

The performance that was announced via the official X account of the NBA shows Horford's permanent effects in the post -season, a phase in which legends are made.

Horford, a five-time all-star, has been a cornerstone for the Celtics with a short break since entering the team in 2016 before returning in 2021.

His Playoff trip began with the Atlanta Hawks, where he took deep runs, and continued with the Philadelphia 76ers and Oklahoma City Thunder before finding a championship house in Boston.

In June 2024, Horford finally conquered his first NBA title, a crowning moment for a player who had been playing for his versatility, leadership and coupling for a long time.

The list he now grants is a WHO that passes from Basketball king buildings by LeBron James with 292 playoff games, followed by legends such as Derek Fisher (259), Tim Duncan (251) and Kobe Bryant (220).

Horford's promotion to 194 games places him to icons such as Michael Jordan (179) and Magic Johnson (190) and underlines his remarkable shelf life at 38 years.

While the Celtics are continuing their NBA Playoffs campaign in 2025, Horford's milestone is reminiscent of his crucial role in the striving for another championship by the team.
