Al Horford Stats

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (back) will get some rest against the Miami Heat on Tuesday as he's dealing with some back stiffness after a disappointing loss to the Orlando Magic on Monday. The 36-year-old hasn't played back-to-backs all season so he was bound to miss one of these games. While he's sidelined, Robert Williams III will likely see some more usage in the starting five and Blake Griffin could see more opportunities off of the bench.

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (back) will be rested Thursday versus Brooklyn. The C's are completing a back-to-back, so the team's decision to keep the veteran out of the contest doesn't come as a surprise. The 36-year-old hasn't played both games of a back-to-back situation all season. Robert Williams III and Grant Williams should handle most of the available minutes, with a little bit of Luke Kornet sprinkled in there as well. Williams III has just logged his first start of the campaign and is averaging 9.5 points and 9.3 rebounds as a starter for his career. He will be nicely fresh as well for the game after resting Wednesday versus OKC.

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford has been listed as available ahead of Friday's contest against the Orlando Magic. He's missed the team's last five games for both personal reasons and being in the health and safety protocols. As the 36-year-old veteran makes his return, Robert Williams III could also be returning to the floor at the same time. This means we could see more of Horford at the power forward position rather than anchoring the defense. He'll likely see a slight decrease in minutes with Williams back in the fold as well.

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (personal) will not suit up Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Horford has now missed five straight games, but there are reports of Horford rejoining the team on Friday. Blake Griffin has been starting in Horford's absence with Grant Williams picking up extra minutes off the bench. Williams is the preferred streaming option due to his high percentages.
