Watch Al Horford have no idea Kristaps Porzingis just dunked on him
Almost everything went the Boston Celtics’ way on Sunday during their 110-94 win over the injury-riddled New York Knicks.
Key word: almost.
One of the few sequences the Celtics – and more specifically Al Horford – would like to have back occurred early in the third quarter. As Horford tried to deny Kristaps Porzingis of an entry pass, the Knicks’ 21-year-old rising star spun off Horford and threw down an alley-oop on the Celtics big man.
Only issue was Horford had no idea Porzingis completed the dunk, grabbing the ball before it hit the floor and looking to start the break. Officials – and even Horford’s All-Star teammate Isaiah Thomas – needed to explain to Horford what occurred before he realized what happened.

The Celtics can laugh it off as Sunday's win increases their lead over the Cavs to one game in the race for the No. 1 seed in the East.
