Dominican power forward Al Horford has been suspended for one game by the NBA for a dangerous hit that sent Toronto Raptors guard T.J. Ford to the hospital on Tuesday. Horford tried to defend Ford as the guard went to the rim only to swipe at his face forcing the guard to the hardwood. Horford has apologized for the incident, saying he did not mean to hurt Ford and visited him in the hospital. He said that they had talked and that there is no bad blood between them. Horford presence will be missed, as he is averaging 8.3 points per game, 10.3 rebounds per game and 1.1 blocks, and was voted last month's rookie of the month.
