Celtics anxious to see James Young return to action

LAS VEGAS — James Young, who is unlikely to play tonight against Philadelphia because of a bruised left hip, isn't alone in his desire to return to the court.

The Celtics brass had hoped to use this prolonged summer league stretch between Salt Lake City and Las Vegas to evaluate the second-year guard, and right now their look is very limited. All they have to go on, at the moment, is a very underwhelming line.

Prior to injuring his hip in the third game of the Utah Jazz Summer League, the highly regarded shooter had gone 2-for-13 from 3-point range and 6-for-26 overall.
