Al Horford is one of the better players in the NBA that almost never gets talked about. Thanks to his quiet game full of 18 footers (and now three-pointers) and solid rim protection, Horford helps the Hawks be the Hawks without putting up many big time highlights. That doesn’t mean he is incapable of it though, as Los Angeles Clippers center Cole Aldrich found out on Wednesday night.

That is just a hammer dropped by Al. Of course even on Horford’s highlights, something incredible he does goes unnoticed as the dunk takes away from the fact that an almost seven footer is so effortlessly able to put the ball on the floor to create the chance.
Aldrich meanwhile was likely wishing that he was going to be all over the internet because he danced again. Because this is probably more embarrassing.
