Celtics' Al Horford: Remains questionable Monday

Horford (concussion) remains questionable to play Monday against the Pelicans, but will go through the Celtics' morning shootaround.

Analysis:

Horford has missed the last six games while going through the league's concussion protocol, but he expressed optimism when speaking on his condition Monday morning, indicating that "everything is getting better every day." The Celtics will see how Horford performs during shootaround before reaching a decision on his status, so news on his availability (or lack thereof) could arrive shortly thereafter. If he's cleared to return, Horford would likely reclaim the starting center spot, while Kelly Olynyk or Amir Johnson would shift to the bench.
