Update on Romeo, Jaylen, Timelord:
Boston coach Brad Stevens said Langford is starting to move toward a return after offseason wrist surgery.
“He’s doing a lot. He’s not playing live yet. He’s had a little bit of soreness which was expected,” Stevens said. “But that’s probably going to push him through the break. He’ll probably be available after the break.”
Robert Williams injury doesn’t seem serious - Williams is the latest Celtic to miss a game with an injury as he’ll sit out Thursday’s game vs. Toronto due to hip soreness.
“We’re just being very, very cautious. It’s just general soreness,” Stevens said. “Hopefully it’s nothing big and doesn’t last beyond a day to day thing.”
Jaylen Brown is on a treatment plan for knee tendinitis - Danny Ainge’s revelation that Brown is dealing with knee tendinitis during his appearance on the Sports Hub Wednesday raised concern about Brown’s health, but Stevens said the condition is common.
“Every one of our players has a treatment plan and a lot of them deal with different levels of tendinitis,” he said. “A lot of them have little things they’re dealing with that they have to manage over the course of a long year. Obviously, the guys who play greater minutes have to manage the more,” said Stevens, who doesn’t influence the process. “I’m not part of that. It’s Jaylen first and foremost and our training staff and they come up with the gameplan. I ask ‘Who’s available?’ and ‘How much?’ That’s about the extent of my involvement.”
