Celtics' Scalabrine out a month

Basketball Betting Lines

03/03/2009 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Boston Celtics forward Brian Scalabrine is expected to be out until April because of the effects of concussions he suffered in January.

Scalabrine sustained a concussion in a practice on January 27, just two days after he was hit in the head during a game against Dallas. He missed the Celtics' next nine games, and returned to play in three more games before suffering what was termed a strained neck in Boston's February 23 game against Denver.

He hasn't played since, and Tuesday, Celtics head coach Doc Rivers indicated a return date of April 1 for Scalabrine, who will be out about a month.

In 39 games this season -- eight starts -- Scalabrine is averaging 3.5 points.
