Boston Celtics point guard Kemba Walker has been diagnosed with concussion-like symptoms after being stretchered from the court late in the second quarter of Friday night's game in Denver. He was transported to a local hospital for further evaluation and was later released, the Celtics announced.
Walker will be re-evaluated Saturday, the team said.
Walker ran head-first into the abdomen area of teammate Semi Ojeleye and immediately went to the floor. Early indications were that Walker did not suffer a significant injury in the collision, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Celtics coach Brad Stevens said after the game that he didn't have an update on Walker's status, but that the scans Walker underwent at halftime yielded good results.
