NEW ORLEANS — After sitting out last night's game against the Spurs game with a bruised right heel, David Lee was confident he'd be ready to go against the Pelicans tomorrow. But that was looking extremely doubtful when he was unable to make it through today's practice.
"I actually didn't even know about David's heel until last night," said Brad Stevens. "He was having some treatment for back spasms the night before but felt like he was going to be good to go. [He] went through our walkthrough and everything else, and then for whatever reason last night he felt like his heel was giving him problems.
