Watch: Al Horford double blocks Tobias Harris’s layup attempts

Al Horford made Tobias Harris look foolish with a pair of blocks on back-to-back layup tries Friday night.

Midway through the fourth quarter in the Celtics’ 125-119 victory over the 76ers at home, Boston trailed by two points and needed a stop.

Horford gave them not just one stop, but two in as many seconds.

Philadelphia’s De’Anthony Melton fed a rainbow pass to Harris from just in front of the Celtics’ Lucky logo that landed right in Harris’s hands under the basket. Thinking he was safe to lay an easy two points up after Sam Hauser moved out of the way, in came Horford with a nasty block off the glass.
