The Celtics suffered a tough blow on Wednesday night as Kevin Garnett left the game with an injured leg. Head Coach Doc Rivers insisted after the game that it was a leg injury and not a knee injury which is good news for Garnett. The early implications have Garnett missing a few games, with no specific timetable for return. This should instantly tick Glen Davis up in value. Garnett was having a nice season, averaging 15 points on 53 percent shooting from the floor, 9.5 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 0.7 blocks.
It's too soon to talk about dropping Garnett, obviously, but adding Davis is highly suggested. Big Baby is averaging 12.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 0.9 steals in just under 30 minutes per game. He's a must-own in all formats -- though I was suggesting you add him long before this injury.
In the absolutely deepest of leagues -- 24- and 30-team leagues -- you can give Luke Harangody a look. He won't play more than 8-10 minutes on a given night, but in a league that deep it's worth picking and stashing.
