Way to not screw up your summer vacation plan, do the surgery at training camp, and rehab during the season!

I don't care about the Celtics and have Al Horford on a couple of money fantasy basketball leagues. I'm glad that Robert should make a full recovery and will take the additional stats while he's out.
