Antoine Walker is out
You never know with the iron man Walker, but its probably
for the best that he takes a game or two off.

Knee injury sidelines Walker
January 21, 2003
WALTHAM, Mass. (AP) -- Antoine Walker is expected to miss
at least one game with a knee injury sustained in the
Boston Celtics' comeback victory over the Philadelphia
76ers.
Walker injured his right knee in the third quarter of
Monday night's 100-99 win in which his 3-pointer provided
the last points of the game, capping a rally from a 23-
point deficit.
Walker finished with 33 points and, on Tuesday, was named
NBA player of the week in the Eastern Conference.
He sat out Tuesday's practice, and coach Jim O'Brien said
he would not play against Milwaukee on Wednesday night in
Boston.
Walker was to undergo an MRI exam to determine the nature
of the injury and said he didn't know his status for
Friday night's game against Denver.
Walker's 21.8-point average ranks 15th in the NBA and
second among the Celtics, who have won four straight
games.
