Crowder will miss a couple of weeks

“He’s going to be out a couple of weeks, minimum,” Stevens said Sunday after practice.

“I just heard about it,” said Celtics wing Evan Turner. “That’s definitely tough. In general, Jae’s playing so great. He plays the bulk of the minutes for us, and defensively and the versatility that we have with him on the floor, it’s definitely tough. So the biggest thing is just getting him healthy. We’ve got a lot of capable guys, guys that have stayed ready throughout this process. So they’ll have an opportunity to play.”

Welp… that sucks. The Celtics have a tenuous grasp on the third seed at the moment and a stretch of games that includes the Pacers, Raptors (twice), Thunder, and Clippers.
