"During the last minute of the Celtics' loss to the Knicks last evening, Brian Scalabrine sprained his ankle. The Boston Herald reports he'll have x-rays today, and went back to Boston while the team moved on to Columbus. With the Celtics season opener less than a week away, it's possible Scalabrine's injury will keep him out for the start of the regular season. Since Scalabrine is expected to see time at both power and small forward this season, and Bill Walker is out til mid-November, expect the Celtics' overflow of shooting guards to backup Paul Pierce at small forward (ESPN)."
He won't miss much time, but I really don't see how Scal fits into the team this year. I know everyone says he sucks, and for the money he gets paid...yes he sucks, but he is not terrible. There will always be a part of me that feel bad for Scal, but I can't blame the Celtics, since they just have too much talent to have a guy like Scal eating minutes...
