Al Horford: Not listed on injury report Horford (back) isn't listed on the Celtics' injury report ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Knicks, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
The Scoop: Horford will be back in action Thursday after taking a seat during Tuesday's loss to Miami due to low back stiffness. The veteran big man's absence during the second half of back-to-backs has been standard procedure for Boston this season, so there shouldn't be any concern about a lingering injury. Across 11 January appearances, Horford is averaging 9.0 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 30.1 minutes per game. Jan 25 9:57 ET |
