Al Horford may be on minutes limit for Celtics Wednesday
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford may have his minutes managed in Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons, head coach Brad Stevens said.
Stevens said Horford may play shorter stints in the second half of the back-to-back set before the Celtics head into the break. In addition to playing fantastic defense against Joel Embiid during a 112-109 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday, Horford scored 23 points (9-of-16 field goals, 2-of-2 free throws) with 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals, and 3 triples over 35.2 minutes. Daniel Theis could see more work if Horford is limited.
numberFire's models expect Horford to play 32.6 minutes and score 36.3 FanDuel points on Wednesday, at a cost of $$7,500.
