Globe: Al Horford is fully vaccinated, eligible to play in Toronto

While it’s unclear whether or not the Boston Celtics are a fully vaccinated squad, Al Horford has cleared things up on his end. According to the Boston Globe’s Adam Himmelsbach, the Boston forward told the paper Friday that he is fully vaccinated and thus eligible to play in Toronto, should the Celtics draw the Raptors in the first round of the impending playoffs.

Horford previously said he would be “ready to play wherever,” but did not specifically reveal his vaccination status.

Himmelsbach wrote that Horford, a valued starter this season, “said he was aware that his absence from the recent Toronto game made some wonder about his future availability, but added that he would be able to play.
