Celtics injury update: Al Horford out vs. Los Angeles Clippers for ‘personal reasons;’ Robert Williams III out as well

It is unclear if Horford will join the team for the Lakers tilt on Tuesday.

The Boston Celtics have updated their reporting for player injuries ahead of their Monday night road tilt with the Los Angeles Clippers, and while no new Celtics will be available to play against the Clippers, it looks like one player is trending toward full health.

That would be veteran big man Al Horford, who has seen his designation in Boston’s most recent injury report shift from being in the health and safety protocol to being out due to unspecified personal reasons. Per The Athletic’s Jared Weiss, “there was a hope Horford would meet the team in LA,” but it now remains “unclear what his status for the Lakers game will be.”

Additionally, Boston made it known center Robert Williams III will not be making his season debut against the Clippers despite speculation of Timelord returning to the court soon.

As he has all season, Danilo Gallinari (ACL) remains out against Los Angeles on Monday.
