The Boston Celtics came very close to a record 18th NBA title last season as they lost to the Warriors in the Finals. The Celtics’ prospects for the playoffs this season are once again well and running as they sit comfortably in the third position in the Eastern Conference table. Amid Boston’s dominance in the East, a Celtics star’s sister has recently garnered a lot of attention on social media for her hot takes against certain NBA stars and their fans. She attracted eyeballs once again by supporting a loyal fan’s decision to end things with a girl.

The Celtics have been remarkably consistent this season with numerous satisfying victories to their account. The team are staying stable on the back of stellar performances from Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. However, even at the age of 36, Celtics star Al Horford has been putting up some good numbers, especially at clutch moments.

Anna has gained much notoriety on the Internet for dissing teams and players during their matchup with her brother’s team. Fans are now surprised to see Anna giving out dating advice on social media.

Anna and her fan do not have time for negativity from Celtics ‘Hater’

Many Celtics supporters follow Anna Horford for funny and controversial takes, backing Boston. One such fan recently tweeted an interesting experience and got back a smart reply from Holford.

A die-hard Celtics fan and journalist named Jared Zero took to twitter and said a woman had once unmatched him on a dating app for supporting Anna and her takes, “I had a girl unmatch with me on a dating app a few months ago because I support @AnnaHorford and her takes, while she despised her. Lmaooo Don’t need that kind of negativity. Right?

In response, Horford assured the fan that it was all for good, since she was a ‘hater’ anyway. “She sounds like a hater…& it also sounds like you dodged a f*cking bullet,” she wrote on Twitter.

By referring to Jared’s ‘match’ as an evaded bullet, Anna tried to highlight the girl’s toxic attitude of hating him over his choice to support someone on the internet.

Anna Horford has many haters

Apart from Jared’s dating app ‘match’, numerous others also hate Anna’s takes and she had suffered backlash for the same. Being a vocal person, she has taken digs on several NBA powerhouses, on social media. When the Milwaukee Bucks struggled hard and finally won against the Celtics playing without key players, Anna ridiculed the Bucks. Moreover, she had taunted LeBron James for missing a layup in a game the Lakers lost to the Celtics through a controversial decision. These have not sat well with the fans and who have hurled jibes at her.
