As per the tweet, “Milwaukee hangs on by the skin of its teeth in OT at home, in a game that went down to the final seconds – against a Celtics team that was missing Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, and Al Horford.”

However, the criticism of the star NBA athletes has subjected Horford to a lot of heat from the fans. As per reports, Anna Horford received death threats after her controversial tweet about LeBron James.
What did Anna Horford say about LeBron James?
Last month, the Lakers had a chance of winning against the Boston Celtics in a game that eventually went into overtime. During the final moments of the fourth quarter, James missed a layup after which he urged the referee to call a foul. Unfortunately, the no-call, that the referees later on admitted to be a mistake, drew an animated reaction from a frustrated LeBron James. The game went into overtime and the Lakers lost 125-121.?
After some time, Anna Horford posted a tweet claiming that a deleted tweet by her about LeBron James’s reaction against Boston triggered threats from fans. Anna Horford wrote, “I tweeted & deleted ‘And the Oscar goes to’ about Lebron?s reaction & Lakers fans lost their damn minds. Like, that was one of my mildest tweets ever?”

Meanwhile, Horford also took down Joel Embiid’s 76ers after they lost a game against the Celtics in the absence of some crucial players. She claimed that the rivalry between the Celtics and the 76ers was ‘non-existent’, given how Philadelphia performed against her brother’s team. Thus, it would be thrilling to find out who will become Anna Horford’s next victim.
