In the days of player empowerment and constant moving around teams, it feels like there are more players than ever that are guarantees for the Hall… but possibly no teams that want to hang their number in the rafters. Who do you reckon falls into this category?
A lot of potential HOFers won’t get their jersey retired when you realize there’s way more to making it to the HOF outside of being a team lead and winning a ring.
I don’t see Horford getting his jersey retired here in Boston, but he’ll be in the Hall of Fame for his college career alone. Then you add on his longevity and a possible ring with Boston (hopefully this year) and it’s hard not to see him get in on one of the ballots.
