BOSTON — Al Horford exploded for 21 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks in a key Celtics win, 120-107 over the Grizzlies, that affirmed their recent run of success. Horford quietly looks like he never left Boston, averaging close to a double-double with two blocks each night while getting his three-point percentage up to the mid-30s. Horford talked about his recent success after Celtics vs Hawks, crediting Jayson Tatum (37 points Thursday) for keeping his confidence up and taking pride in Horford’s success.
