Lakers fans believe that Jrue Holiday and Al Horford will miss the game against the Clippers in order to be rested and ready for their team.

Horford (toe) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Clippers, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports. Horford has consistently sat out one of leg of Boston's back-to-backs this seasons.

The Boston Celtics are coming off a massive blowout win against the Golden State Warriors on Monday, but injury woes could affect their steady regular season run so far.

Boston Celtics star Al Horford's sister Anna Horford was stunned by Elon Musk's gesture at the presidential inauguration of President Donald Trump on Monday.

Boston’s starting five is finding cohesion, and its defense stifled Golden State. The Celtics’ ability to stay consistent will be tested against the Clippers, who sit fifth in the Western Conference standings and sport a 15-7 record at the Intuit Dome.

Horford (toe) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Hawks, Souichi Terada of MassLive.com reports. After playing 23 minutes in Friday's blowout win against the Magic, Horford will miss Saturday's game against the Hawks in Boston.

The Celtics will be back at full strength on Monday afternoon when they face off against the Warriors at Chase Center. The team removed Kristaps Porzingis (injury recovery management) and Al Horford (toe sprain) from the injury report for Monday’s contest after both players missed Saturday’s loss to the Hawks.

LOS ANGELES — The Celtics will look to string together some consistency as they take on the Clippers at 10:30 p.m. Tuesday at Intuit Dome. They could be missing some rotation players, though, as they have two players listed on their injury report for Tuesday’s game.

Boston will need to be vigilant that old habits vs. banged-up and lesser ball clubs don't make a winnable game into a struggle -- or worse, a loss.

There is legitimate concern about the roster construction of the team now, as well as the potential cap hit Kessler might command down the road.
