Via Boston.com: "I've had enough of 'Big Baby,' so I'm going to start calling him Glen," Grousbeck told the Globe. "It certainly seems like there's going to be a suspension here." Last night Gary Tanguay reported Davis would be out 6-to-8 weeks with a broken hand. But this morning, we are learning the injury is a broken thumb and surgery is still a possibility. Steve Bullpett from the Herald: But sources said there is some type of fracture in the thumb and that he will have to undergo further testing with specialists to determine whether there is greater damage that could necessitate surgery. I'm going to keep using a line from our other posts on this injury - Great. Just great. After the jump, some pics from yesterday's Celtics practice. (Photos courtesy Yahoo! Sports)
