Brad Stevens: Celtics' Kemba Walker Likely to Miss at Least Two Games

The Celtics will likely be without star guard Kemba Walker for at least two games, according to head coach Brad Stevens.

Speaking to reporters ahead of his team's game against the 76ers, Stevens said Walker would miss Saturday's contest and probably at least one more. He added that the UConn product's left knee flared up last game, but that it’s not a “long, long term” situation.

“His knee flared up on Thursday, the same knee he had been dealing with earlier in the year,’’ Stevens said. “I don’t know what they’ve officially labeled it as, but it’s been ongoing all year.
