The Mavericks had trouble scoring on Horford all night long, shooting just 5 of 18 from the field (26.3 percent) and 1 of 6 from deep (16.6 percent) when he was the primary defender.
Horford more than held his own when Luka Doncic hunted him out in switches, with Doncic shooting just 1 of 8 from the field and missing all four 3-pointers with Horford on him.
Doncic credited the Celtics' individual defense for slowing down his playmaking ability, stating 'They mostly play one-on-one.'
Kyrie Irving also struggled against Horford, shooting 2 of 5 from the field and getting a shot blocked by him in the game.
