Al Horford is still holding his own against elite players such as Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokic at age 38.

On Sunday afternoon, the Boston Celtics picked up an impressive home victory over the Denver Nuggets despite playing without both Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis. The win brought the Celtics’ rare two-game losing skid to a halt and gave them a boost of confidence as the season approaches its final stretch.
