Al Horford: Out Friday vs. Hornets

According to A. Sherrod Blakely of NBC Sports Boston, general manager Danny
Ainge said Horford’s concussion isn’t as bad as the one that sidelined him nine
games last season, though it appears Horford is still set to miss some time.
Friday will mark his second straight absence and it remains unclear if Horford
will be cleared for Sunday’s tilt with the Raptors either. In the meantime, look
for Aron Baynes to pick up another start at center after posting an impressive
21 points, eight rebounds and three assists in relief on Wednesday.
