NBA: Hawks lose Al Horford indefinitely

The Atlanta Hawks would miss their starting scorer Al Horford indefinitely due to a torn right pectoral muscle.

"We will work with Al and complete our due diligence to determine the next best steps," said the Hawks general manger Danny Ferry in a statement.

Horford averages 18.6 points and 8.4 rebounds for the Hawks this season.
