GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Al Horford is healthy. So is the Atlanta Hawks' record with Horford back from a season-ending injury a season ago.
Horford's comeback reached new heights on Tuesday night in Atlanta's 105-87 over the Philadelphia 76ers. Horford registered his first career triple-double with 21 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
