Steve Kerr Reveals Surprising Truth Behind Al Horford’s Shooting Struggles – What Fans Need to Know
Al Horford, a name that once sparked excitement among Golden State Warriors fans, now finds himself in a perplexing shooting drought that’s raising eyebrows. How does one of the NBA’s most seasoned big men suddenly become the Houdini of the hardwood, mysteriously vanishing from the scoreboard? Coach Steve Kerr, ever the calm mentor, isn’t sweating it—reminding us all that great players sometimes stumble when carving out a new role. Yet, here we are, watching as Horford’s shots refuse to fall, leaving fans wondering if this slump is just a hiccup or the start of a bigger puzzle. In a team brimming with offensive firepower, can Golden State afford to wait, or is this stall a sign that the Warriors’ quest for streaks and supremacy might hit a snag? Let’s dive into the story behind the cold streak and what it could mean for Horford and the Warriors moving forward.
Al Horford of the Golden State Warriors is one of the most respected and accomplished big men currently in the NBA.
But right now, Horford isn’t a huge help to his team.
He is in the midst of a pretty significant shooting slump, and Warriors head coach Steve Kerr spoke about it on Wednesday night.
Kerr admitted that Horford isn’t shooting well, but urged the star player to keep trying.
“Just gotta keep playing. I thought Al played a great basketball game tonight. The ball didn’t go in. He took all the right shots. They all looked good. They’re going to go in. He’s Al Horford. We know what kind of shooter he is. Slow start for him, to be expected, honestly, when you go to a new team. I’m not worried about Al at all,” Kerr said.
Al Horford is 5-of-24 from 3 six games into his Warriors tenure. He missed all seven tonight.

It’s good that Kerr isn’t worried about Horford, because some fans are.
On Wednesday, he produced zero points, although he was good for seven rebounds, two assists, and two steals.
The silver lining for the Warriors is that the team typically has a strong offense, which means they have other options if Horford is ice-cold.
But they definitely want him to find his shot as soon as possible.
When he was signed by the team, fans were excited to see how he could dominate in the paint and assist off the bench.
However, they also envisioned him as a strong offensive threat, too.
It’s only been a few games, and Horford has plenty of time to get on the right track.
But the Warriors want a string of consecutive wins, so the sooner he starts shooting well, the better.
