Brooklyn Nets' Jeff Green hurt, out for rest of series vs. Boston Celtics

NEW YORK -- Jeff Green has strained his plantar fascia and will be reevaluated in 10 days, sidelining him for the remainder of the Brooklyn Nets' first-round series against the Boston Celtics.

While he is out, Green will continue to travel with the team while working on his rehab, coach Steve Nash said.

"He has been so valuable to us this year with all the injuries we've had," Nash said Tuesday. "He's been able to play multiple positions, different roles and fill in all the gaps for us. Fortunately, we're relatively healthy elsewhere.
