Al Horford

Everybody has their opinion. I respect anything that anybody has to say.

My mom wanted me to play baseball. She didn't want me to play basketball.

My faith always kept me focused and strong.

Chocolate milk has everything I need in a drink: the carbs, the protein, and the electrolytes. It's even backed by science, showing how you're able to recover. I can speak from experience, this is what I drink.

There'd be days I was in the locker room with my dad doing media, and there'd be other days that I'd be with my mom in the press box and just kind of looking at stuff from that point of view. I'd see guys writing stories after the game and stuff like that. So it was cool to me to see both sides.

I gave everything I had - on the floor, trying to be the best leader that I could, trying to help the guys as much as I could, putting in the extra work.
