Horford has missed the last six games with a concussion. A return would be a big boost for the Celtics in their matchup with Anthony Davis, who is one of the best big men in the league.
Davis makes a struggling Pelicans team a threat in any game especially at home.
The Celtics have gone 3-3 in the absence of Horford. They do come in on a two game winning streak. Game time is scheduled for 8:05 p.m.
