Al Horford says Celtics have ‘multiple guys that are capable’ of guarding Giannis

Boston Celtics big man Al Horford thought the team did a great job of defending Giannis Antetokounmpo in last night’s 139-118 home win vs. the Milwaukee Bucks.

(via CLNS Media):

Reporter: “Joe [Mazzulla] was talking about guarding Giannis [Antetokounmpo], and just listed basically the entire roster for you guys having a part. What’d you think about the team’s effort on him?”

Horford: “That’s what you need with a guy like that. He’s a two-time MVP and just a great player. Blake [Griffin], Grant [Williams], JB [Jaylen Brown], JT [Jayson Tatum], we were all matched up with him at some point. That’s one of the strengths of our group, we have multiple guys that are capable, and we showed that tonight.”
