Recently, former NBA player Ezeli talked about Horford on the "Dubs Talk" program.

Ezeli said: "Horford is a winner. He has been a winner since he entered the NBA. My favorite Horford story is this. A Hawks player told me that when Horford was a rookie, he made everyone lose. Taking responsibility, he makes his teammates want to win, which is crazy for a rookie.

"He won two championships in college, which shows his character. He always does the right things on the court and is always in the right position. He keeps improving his game, he's a floor-spacing big man, I don't remember him shooting in college, so he's improving every year. "
