Celtics' Al Horford (illness) ruled out Wednesday night
Boston Celtics power forward/center Al Horford has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards.
What It Means:
Horford will be sidelined due to an illness. He joins Kyrie Irving (knee), Jaylen Brown (concussion), Marcus Smart (thumb) and Daniel Theis (knee) on the bench for this one. Terry Rozier will be asked to facilitate the offense while Aron Baynes, Marcus Morris and Greg Monroe pick up more minutes down low.
Horford will have the opportunity to return Friday against the Orlando Magic. He's projected for 32.1 minutes and 35.4 FanDuel points if he's able to get back out there for Boston.
