Who has played the most NBA playoff games without winning a championship?

Boston Celtics center Al Horford has missed the playoffs only twice in his 17 seasons in the NBA. The five-time All-Star has played in six Eastern Conference Finals and is competing in his second NBA Finals.

While Horford helped lead the Florida Gators to back-to-back NCAA championships in 2006-07, an NBA championship has remained out of Horford’s grasp.

Horford drew close in 2022, when his Celtics lost to the eventual NBA champion Golden State Warriors in six games.

Two seasons later, Horford is close again.

Horford and the Celtics have a 2-0 series lead against the Dallas Mavericks entering Wednesday’s Game 3 of the 2024 NBA Finals. It will mark Horford’s 184th career playoff game. Where does that rank in NBA history?

Here are the players who have played the most career NBA playoff games without winning a championship.
