All-Star center Al Horford is back in the lineup for the Atlanta Hawks.

Horford sat out Atlanta's last game against Portland with a sore left ankle. After testing it shortly before Tuesday night's makeup game against Milwaukee, he declared himself ready to play.

Horford has missed five games with various injuries this season. The Hawks took their two worst home losses of the season while he was out, but are coming off a win over the Trail Blazers that snapped a four-game skid.

The Bucks are in Atlanta to make up a Jan. 11 game that was postponed because of an ice storm.
