The Boston Celtics have an unfortunate Al Horford update after an offseason that has consisted of many bleak updates regarding the big man. The Golden State Warriors have been linked to the veteran for quite some time, but there is a financial roadblock that has presented itself, complicating a potential reunion.

In other news, the current roster is already raising its share of red flags as the regular season is just a little over one month away. Fans know that the lack of superstar Jayson Tatum on the court will be a noticeable change, but an NBA insider listed who he believes are the biggest potential issues going into the new year.

To make matters worse, ESPN forecasted where they believe the NBA will be in three seasons, and it isn't looking great for Boston. Even though the Celtics are a little over a year from hoisting the Larry O'Brien trophy, this prediction shows just how much will change in the near future.
