 boards, he was scoring down low, he was hustling and keeping balls
 alive... and the Celtics didn't seem to have an answer.  Meanwhile, Shelden Williams sat on the bench.  And he stayed there. Shelden
 left San Antonio with a big DNP-Coaches Decision next to his name in

"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.

It was 5 years ago in the 2004 McDonald's All-American game. He wasn't a starter for either side, and he wasn't getting much hype from the announcers (Dwight Howard, Josh Smith, and Sebastian Telfair were the marquee names that night). I have to admit, when I first got a glimpse of Glen Davis, I rolled my eyes. Here's a big...

Glen “Big Baby” Davis reminded us of that last night when he plowed through a crowd of front-row spectators after hitting his game-winning jumper last night to potentially save the Celtics’ season. He avoided most of the fans, but landed a direct hit on a kid wearing a white t-shirt, sending his hat flying into the stands.
