With the Thunder sitting in a tie for 12th place in the Western Conference and four games back of the No. 8 seed, the team has reportedly decided to sit veteran forward Al Horford for the remainder of the season in order to get younger players more minutes, per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Horford, 34, plans to remain with the team for the rest of the year to train but won't appear in any of Oklahoma City's final 28 games.
A five-time All-Star, Horford has averaged 14.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 3.4 assists this season in 28 games (all starts), shooting 45.
