Kevin Garnett Out With Knee Injury

Filed under: Celtics , Suns , NBA Injuries PHOENIX — Doc Rivers told reporters during Wednesday’s morning shootaround that Kevin Garnett ‘s availability for the Celtics ‘ game against the Suns that evening would be a game-time decision. It wasn’t quite game time when Rivers met with the media again a little less than an hour before tip-off, but he had made up his mind: Garnett was sitting due to soreness in his right knee — and in all likelihood, was going to miss more than one game. “I just decided that if I was debating it, the basketball gods were probably telling me to go with [my initial thought],” Rivers said. “So, we sat him down. We’ve got to wait for it to heal, and we’ll see how long that takes.” Rivers said that he also expects Garnett to miss Boston’s home game against the Raptors Saturday, but he hopes to have his player back for next Wednesday’s contest in Miami. ?
