Kemba Walker expected to pick up smoothly in Orlando

In delicacy with his left knee since his return from the All-Star Game, to the point of having then had recourse to a drainage and an injection which were to relieve his pain for the next six months, Kemba Walker still has not found 100 % of his physical condition.

As the recovery approaches and after this long period of inactivity due to the suspension of the season, the Boston point guard should therefore be spared by his staff. If he took part in some group sessions, Kemba Walker could however not participate in the planned scrimmages against OKC, Phoenix and Houston between July 24 and 28.

“We are going to move very slowly with Kemba Walker and let him strengthen at the knee, » said Brad Stevens after the first training from Boston to Orlando. ” We want to make sure it is ready for the moment when we enter the determining matches for the classification and of course the playoffs. ”

The Celtics have not yet secured their third place in the Eastern Conference (43-21) and can also eye the second place of the Raptors.

The program remains very busy with eight regular season games in 12 days, in the following order: Milwaukee, Portland, Miami, Brooklyn, Toronto, Orlando, Memphis and finally Washington.

Suffice to say that the presence of Kemba Walker will not be too much to ensure the C’s the best possible ranking. It will be up to the medical staff, the coach and the player to decide in due time.
