Al Horford Available Versus Chicago

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) will play on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran sat out Friday's win over the Detroit Pistons. But in all fairness, the Celtics didn't need him. Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) will get the night off to rest after logging 26 minutes on Friday, so Horford will slide into the starting lineup. The 37-year-old has averaged 10.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks in 28 starts this season, meaning he has an excellent chance to crush his DFS value.

Jayson Tatum Cleared To Play Saturday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) will play on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. He wasn't available for Friday's massive win over the Detroit Pistons because of right ankle impingement, an injury he's dealt with for the last few weeks. However, the Celtics have a firm grasp on the No. 1 spot in the Eastern Conference, so the team could afford to give him the night off versus the worst team in the National Basketball Association. With Jaylen Brown (ankle), Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring), and Jrue Holiday (shoulder) sidelined for this one, Tatum could thrive from a production standpoint.

Al Horford Questionable To Face Bulls

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is regarded as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Chicago. He's strained his left big toe and might be absent for a second consecutive contest. Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) has already been ruled out for Saturday's game, meaning Boston will be desperate to have Horford available. If he can't go, it should be full steam ahead for Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman Sr., the backup bigs off the bench, to play a significantly more important role than they usually do. It's going to be a tough challenge, however, with Chicago rolling out Nikola Vucevic and Andre Drummond at the center position.

Jrue Holiday Out On Saturday

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) won't play against Chicago on Saturday. The veteran sits out a fourth consecutive game. With Holiday missing, Payton Pritchard has strung together a nice run of good performances and should contribute well again on Saturday in a good matchup. The Bulls struggle to guard the three-point line, giving up the second-most three-point makes in the league, putting Pritchard in a great position to do damage from deep, along with the rest of the C's.

Kristaps Porzingis Won't Suit Up Against Chicago

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) won't play on Saturday night in Chicago. The veteran logged 26 minutes in Friday's massive win over the Pistons, finishing with 19 points. Yet, the C's have a firm grasp on the top spot in the Eastern Conference, so the team will start resting their stars to prepare for a deep postseason run. Al Horford (toe) is questionable. But if he is available, he'll likely become a coveted DFS commodity. On the other hand, if Horford is also ruled out, Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman Sr. should handle most of the work underneath the basket. With that in mind, Kornet has a much higher fantasy ceiling.
