Scot Pollard will miss the remainder of the season with a torn tendon in his left ankle. He played in 22 games (0 starts) for the Celtics this year and he averaged 7.9 minutes, 1.8 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.1 assists per game. The Celtics won’t miss Pollard as he wasn’t getting any playing time anyway.

The Celtics have decided to shut down Paul Pierce for the remainder of the season due to an elbow injury. The fact that Pierce only played in 47 games is the single biggest reason for the awful season that the Celtics endured this year. Pierce averaged 25.0 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game this season and those numbers were way to hard for the Celtics to replace. Hopefully they’ll get lucky at Draft Lottery time.

Brian Scalabrine is done for the season due to a hamstring injury. The Celtics didn’t need another injury as they might have to sign a few players off the street to finish the season. He played in 54 games this season and he averaged 19.0 minutes, 4.0 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. The thing the Celtics will miss most about Scalabrine is that he’s a good outside shooter.

Michael Olowokandi will miss the remainder of the season after fracturing his foot in practice. He didn’t play much this season and won’t be much of a loss to the Celtics the rest of the way. He played in 24 games for the Celtics this season and he averaged 9.7 minutes, 1.7 points, 2.0 rebounds and 0.2 assists per game. The Celtics should be more concerned with letting the kids play anyway so that they know who to keep and who to let go as they continue rebuilding the team.

Wally Szczerbiak had season ending ankle surgery last Thursday. The Celtics will miss his long range shooting ability, but that’s Wally’s only real skill on the basketball court. He played in 32 games and he averaged 28.1 minutes, 15.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game. Look for Szczerbiak to help the Celtics out next season if he’s still with the Celtics.
