Al Horford said there is a chance his dislocated right pinky finger will prevent him from playing in Game 2 Wednesday.
The Hawks All-Star center suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of Game 1 of the Eastern Conference first-round playoff series against the Nets Sunday. He returned for the final six minutes of the Hawks’ 99-92 win with his pinky and ring fingers taped together. X-rays were negative for a fracture but Horford said there is considerable pain.
“I think there is still some question about it,” Horford said Monday when asked directly if he would play Game 2.
