Al Horford made the most of his opportunities Friday night, scoring 10 points on 3-5 shooting and grabbing 3 rebounds in limited action in the Sophomores' 122-116 win over the Rookies in the T-Mobile Rookie Challenge.

Horford's playing time was limited to 18:54, least amongst the starters, due to the fact that he continues to work his way back from the knee injury that cost him 12 games in January and February.

Big Al made the most of the limited touches he got, as his teammate Kevin Durant was the bigger story of the night as he scored an All-Star weekend record 46 points as the Sophomores won for the seventh straight year.

Congrats to Al for making the squad for the second straight year, and while a lot of the talk on Friday was about how Durant would be making an appearance on Sundays in the future, I don't think Horford will be too far behind him either.

One event down, 3 more to go - Joe Johnson and H-O-R-S-E are up next, to be broadcast live on TNT sometime during Inside the NBA Saturday afternoon between 4-6 pm ET.
