CSNNE officially reports via Celtics that it is NOT KG's knee that was injured. It is a calf injury.

It depends on their gravity I guess but I remember Shaq sat out a few games with a calf injury earlier this year. Nothing really long, supposedly.

Prognosis of a calf strain

With appropriate management, patients with minor calf strains can usually recover in one to three weeks. With larger tears, recovery may take four to six weeks or longer depending on the severity. In cases of a complete rupture of the calf muscle surgery may be required with intensive rehabilitation to follow. Return to sport or activity may then take 6 months or longer.
