BOSTON (AP) -The Celtics’ “Big Three” was reduced to one Friday night against Toronto – forward Ray Allen.
Boston’s usual starters were down by three, with Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Rajon Rondo all sidelined.
Boston opened with two of its usual starters: Allen and center Kendrick Perkins. J.R. Giddons made his first professional start at guard. Rasheed Wallace was the other forward and Tony Allen stepped in for Rondo at point guard.
Pierce plans on returning from a knee injury and practicing Monday, Garnett is sidelined because of a sore right knee, and Rondo is out with a sore left hamstring.
