Al Horford Out On Saturday Night
2 years agoBoston Celtics center Al Horford (back) isn't available for Saturday's matchup versus the Pistons. The 36-year-old played on Friday night against Denver, logging 34 minutes and finishing with 21 points and seven rebounds. However, he's out with low back stiffness, something he's been working through for nearly the entire season. There's a good chance Horford will be back for Monday's meeting with OKC. In the meantime, Jayson Tatum will gain a substantial boost in usage and fantasy points per minute. Those numbers will improve even more if Jaylen Brown (knee) can't suit up, either. Managers should also look in Luke Kornet's direction as a potential DFS value option with an upside.
