Al Horford, Marcus Morris return to Celtics' starting lineup

BOSTON -- The Boston Celtics saw both center Al Horford and forward Marcus Morris return to the starting lineup Sunday night against the Charlotte Hornets after missing time with knee issues.

Horford has missed the past seven games with patellofemoral pain syndrome in his left knee, while Morris has missed the past two with right knee soreness. Before Sunday's game, however, Celtics coach Brad Stevens confirmed both would be back -- and starting -- against Charlotte, as the Celtics try to end a three-game losing streak.

Horford would be on a minutes limit, though Stevens said he wasn't sure what that limit would be, and wouldn't know until game time.
