Joseph hurt in Celtics' Summer League win

Share

Celtics rookie forward Kris Joseph, a second-round pick from Syracuse, left the Celtics' 79-74 NBA Summer League victory over the Chicago Bulls in Las Vegas on Tuesday night with a hyperextended knee in the first half and didn't return.

E'Twaun Moore scored 25 points points and Dionte Christmas 18 as the Celtics improved to 2-0 in the Las Vegas portion of the Summer League. There was no word if Joseph, the 51st overall in the draft last month, would be available for the C's next game Thursday night against the Sacramento Kings in Las Vegas.

Celtics top pick Jared Sullinger of Ohio State continued his strong rebounding in Summer League play with 12 boards.
