Al Horford’s Sister Anna Offers Brutal Message To 76ers Fans
Al Horford's Sister Anna Offers Brutal Message To 76ers Fans
Al Horford’s sister Anna is widely regarded as one of the NBA’s more vocal siblings.
Whether things are going well or poorly for her brother and the Boston Celtics, she never shies away from doing online battle over it.
Between the wild photos Anna posted after this year’s Lakers game and her blunt Kyrie Irving warning, she has definitely become something of a mainstay in the news cycle.
This week Anna went mega-viral for the message she sent Philadelphia 76ers fans after her Celtics earned a hard-fought 110-107 victory over them on Saturday night.
Don’t mention the @celtics & 76er’s in the same sentence.

NBA fans by and large are a fickle bunch. Understandably, Anna’s tweet elicited a lot of responses across the spectrum.
Some were positive – others not so much.
It was a 3 PT game and Celtics won by a millisecond, relax.

The Celtics beat the 76ers.
Why am I not allowed to make that sentence, Anna???— Brother Andrej (@BrotherAndrej) February 26, 2023
The Celtics own the Sixers. I’m terrible at following directions.

The Celtics are currently the best team in the Eastern Conference. There is no debating that.
They hold a four-game lead over the third-place 76ers and Saturday night was likely one of the last chances Philly had to eat into that.
A well-deserved vacation from watching the Rams embarrass themselves. https://t.co/u16DW3j3y9

Still, Joel Embiid and Co. have been playing noticeably better basketball as of late. They are 7-3 over their last 10 and came within a millisecond of Embiid sending the last game into overtime.
Will the 76ers make Anna and the Celtics rue the day they dismissed them as a legitimate Eastern Conference threat? An answer one way or the other will emerge in the playoffs in just a few weeks.
