Will be re-evaluated in one week
An MRI confirmed a minor right calf strain for Horford and he will be re-evaluated in one week, Danny Emerman of SFStandard.com reports.
Analyse
Horford is set to miss at least the next five games, and it's important to note that while he'll be re-evaluated in one week, that doesn't mean he will return at that point. Quinten Post figures to be more involved in the rotation while Horford is sidelined.

Not playing Sunday
Horford (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks.
Analyse
Horford strained his right calf during the first quarter of Friday's loss to the Timberwolves. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr told reporters after the game that he expects Horford will miss time, per Anthony Slater of ESPN.com. It comes as no surprise seeing Horford scratched for Sunday's lineup, and the veteran big man will likely be sidelined for Monday's game against the Wizards. The Warriors will also be without Draymond Green (back) and Kristaps Porzingis (illness) on Sunday, so Golden State's frontcourt depth would be extremely depleted if Quinten Post (ankle) is also unable to play.

Set to miss time with calf strain
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said after Friday's 127-117 loss to the Timberwolves that Horford suffered a right calf strain during the contest and is expected to miss time, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports. "With a calf, we're not going to rush him back," Kerr said.
Analyse
With Draymond Green (back) sitting out Friday, Horford picked up his 12th start of the season but played just five minutes before exiting with 7:05 remaining in the first quarter due to what the Warriors had labeled as right calf tightness. With Kerr confirming that the veteran big man strained his calf, Horford is expected to miss the Warriors' next game Sunday in New York and likely additional contests beyond that. The potential return of Green for Sunday's game could help offset Horford's absence, and Kristaps Porzingis and Quinten Post (ankle) could also move into larger roles in the Golden State frontcourt.

Exits early with tight calf
Horford won't return to Friday's game against the Timberwolves due to right calf tightness. He finished with three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and one rebound in five minutes.
Analyse
Horford entered the starting five in place of Draymond Green (back) but checked out of the game with just over seven minutes remaining in the first quarter and was ruled out for the rest of the game shortly thereafter. The absences of Green and Horford for the rest of the evening should open up more playing time for Kristaps Porzingis and Quinten Post in the frontcourt. The Warriors will likely send Horford in for further testing before deciding on his availability for Sunday's game against the Knicks, but the veteran big man would appear to be questionable -- at best -- for that contest.

Poor shooting performance
Horford accumulated 13 points (5-18 FG, 3-10 3Pt), nine rebounds, five assists and four blocks across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 130-124 overtime loss to the Bulls.
Analyse
The fact that Horford needed 18 shots to score 13 points tells you all you need to know about his shooting performance. That said, the veteran big man still found a way to deliver strong numbers across the board due to his contributions in peripheral categories. He continues to sit out at least one half of back-to-back sets, but Horford's 34 minutes were a season-high mark, and he's played at least 29 minutes in three straight appearances.

Cleared to play Tuesday
Horford (toe) will play Tuesday against the Bulls.
Analyse
After missing the front end of this back-to-back set, Horford is all set to reprise his usual role. Quinten Post and Malevy Leons are expected to see reduced minutes as a result.
