Al Horford (knee) doubtful for Celtics Monday
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (knee) is doubtful for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
Horford is headed for a second straight absence after being downgraded from questionable. Aron Baynes (ankle) has been ruled out, so Daniel Theis could be in line for another busy outing. He scored 22 points (8-of-15 field goals, 2-of-4 3-pointers, 4-of-7 free throws) with 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, and 4 blocks in 32.3 minutes on Saturday.
Horford is averaging 31.4 FanDuel points through 22 games. numberFire's models project him to record 18,8 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.7 blocks per game over the rest of the year.
