Boston Celtics rookie Payton Pritchard suffered an injury during Saturday’s practice that Brad Stevens didn’t know exactly how to describe.
“Payton Pritchard had his finger pop out today,” Stevens told reporters via Zoom, when asked if he had any other injury updates in addition to Kemba Walker and Tristan Thompson. “I don’t know what the right medical term is for that. But they were able to place it back and hopefully his timeline to return to practice will be sooner rather than later.”
Pritchard, who was the Celtics’ second first-round selection at No. 26, has impressed teammates and coaches in the early going.
