Al Horford DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) will be in the lineup on Friday against the Miami Heat. Boston has upgraded his status from probable to available. With Kristaps Porzingis (illness) out of commission, Horford has recently taken on a heavy workload. He is averaging 15.8 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.8 steals this month. However, Horford doesn't play back-to-backs, so Luke Kornet and Neemias Queta will likely do the bulk of the work at center on Saturday against the Brooklyn Nets if Porzingis isn't ready to return.

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (toe) is expected to play on Friday versus the Miami Heat. Hoford appears likely to play Friday after sitting out Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. Unlike Jayson Tatum (knee) and Kristaps Porzingis (illness), who are both questionable, Horford is probable. For the season, Horford has played in 51 games. He averages 8.5 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game. His shooting percentage is 41.9%. Luke Kornet could be more productive if Horford and Porzingis (who is listed as questionable) can't play.

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (toe) won't play on Monday versus Utah. He's listed as out because of a toe sprain. But it's not uncommon for the veteran to miss games, so fantasy managers may see him back on the floor on Wednesday night against OKC. With Kristaps Porzingis (illness) ruled out, Horford would have likely handled things underneath the basket. However, Luke Kornet, averaging 10.0 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks in 10 starts this season, will likely get the start.
