Boston Celtics

Injuries/lineups

Here are a few injury updates straight from the mouth of Danny Ainge:

  • Paul Pierce is expected to travel with the Celtics on their next road trip and practice with the team, but not play.
  • Al Jefferson will not make the trip and will stay here to receive treatment on his foot.

    Jefferson said he would weigh shutting it down for the rest of the season.

    “I don’t know,” Jefferson said. “We’ll have to see about [things] this weekend and get some treatment and let me try to do some on-court stuff and just see how I do feel. The season is really coming to an end, but I would love to come back and get a couple of games, but if not, it’s next season that will count the most.”

  • Delonte West is day-to-day
  • Brian Scalabrine is expected to miss the rest of the season.

    Here are tonight’s lineups:

    Boston

    Rajon Rondo-G
    Allan Ray-G
    Gerald Green-F
