Al Horford: Now that the games mean more, the focus really shifts to defense

Last summer Horford signed a four-year contract worth $109 million with the Philadelphia 76ers

76ers big man Al Horford said to Espn that his team will have to focus primarily on defense when the season resumes.

“Now that the games mean more at this point, and especially the playoffs coming in, the focus really shifts to defense. We have to make sure we are great defensively. The offense, it will come. We’ll figure that out. But defensively we have to make sure that we’re great, and I believe that we will be.

Horford will continue to come off the bench, with Brett Brown working on a new starting five with Shake Milton as pointguard and Ben Simmons as power forward.
