Al Horford (toe) uncertain Thursday for Celtics
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (left big toe sprain) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks.
What It Means:
Horford has played in every game this season that wasn't on a back-to-back, but that might change on Thursday night. Derrick White will likely return to the starting lineup if Horford is held out. There would also be more opportunities for Sam Hauser, Xavier Tillman (knee), and Luke Kornet. However, Tillman is also listed as questionable.
numberFire's models project Horford for 23.5 minutes and 20.8 FanDuel points on Thursday.
