BOSTON (AP) — Celtics general manager Danny Ainge says top draft pick Avery Bradley will have a "scope" on his left ankle and be sidelined 6-to-8 weeks.
Bradley was selected in the first round, 19th overall, in the NBA draft on Thursday night and was introduced by the Celtics on Friday, along with second-round pick Luke Harangody.
The 6-foot-3, 180-pound Bradley entered the draft after his freshman year in Texas. He sprained his left ankle on June 13 during workouts.
