<p>The Boston Celtics may pick Illinois center Meyers Leonard at number 21, according to the most recent mock draft <a href="http://www.draftexpress.com/nba-mock-draft/2012/" target="_blank">from Draft Express</a>. The athletic 7-footer would be a project pick as <a href="https://twitter.com/JonRothstein/status/205749251295289345" target="_blank">some experts consider him</a> to be unpolished on both offense and defense.</p>
<p>Other mocks have him going sooner in the draft as Centers with his size and athleticism tend to be chosen higher in the draft. Boston would be a good spot for Leonard however as <span>Kevin Garnett</span> is reaching the end of his contract in Boston.</p>
<p>The Sophomore averaged 13.6 points per game in his final season in Illinois. He also averaged 8.2 rebounds and showed defensive prowess with 1.9 blocks per game. Leonard would benefit from Boston's defensive philosophy as their 89.3 points allowed was ranked second in the Eastern conference.</p>

<p>The Boston Red Sox have announced pitcher <span>Daisuke Matsuzaka</span> will continue his rehab assignment on Saturday for AAA Pawtucket against Toledo. Matsuzaka received a cortisone injection in his shoulder on Saturday after his rehab start this past Thursday due to pain in his trapezius muscle.</p>

</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Initial reports indicated Matsuzaka had been experiencing tightness in the shoulder since his previous start. Daisuke's rehab start on Thursday was his longest outing to date, he went 6.2 innings and allowed four earned runs. Two of his runs were off of homeruns allowed including off of the first batter he faced.</p>
<p>Matsuzaka's rehab was scheduled to end on Wednesday, the injury allows for the Red Sox to restart his 30 day rehab process. The Japanese pitcher received Tommy John surgery on his elbow last June and has been working towards a return to the rotation.</p>

<p>Celtics shooting guard <span>Avery Bradley</span> may be shut down for the rest of the postseason due to a left shoulder injury according to<a href="http://articles.boston.com/2012-05-23/sports/31828223_1_avery-bradley-shoulder-injury-source" target="_blank"> the Boston Globe</a>. A source confirmed to the Globe that there is a 90 percent chance Bradley will not suit up for the remainder of the playoffs and will likely need surgery. <br><br>Bradley has already missed the previous two games due to soreness in both shoulders and has been listed as day-to-day by Celtics coach <span>Doc Rivers</span>. Bradley is close to making a decision on whether to undergo the surgery.<br><br>The former Longhorn took over as the shooting guard back in April and has been a strong defensive presence for the Celtics. However, injuries have come often to Bradley, as they wrecked his rookie season limiting him to only 31 games.<br><br><i>For more on the <a href="https://www.celticsblog.com/">Celtics</a>, please check out our site <a href="http://celticsblog.com/">Celtics Blog</a> and <a href="http://boston.sbnation.com/">SB Nation Boston</a> for all the latest news and updates.

<p>Speaking at luncheon today in Atlanta, Hawks co-owner Michael Gearon Jr. complained about his team's lack of calls by the referees and referred to Kevin Garnett as being the dirtiest guy in the league.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>"[Kevin] Garnett is the dirtiest guy in the league. We are playing Boston last night and they had two fouls the whole first half. We had five times that and we're athletic."</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Sam Amick of SI reported that Gearon was being fined by the NBA for his words against Garnett:</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p>Last but not least, Atlanta owner Michael Gearon is fined $35,000 by the NBA for, in essence, calling Boston's Kevin Garnett a dirty player.</p>

<p>On Saturday the NBA also fined Hawks forward Ivan Johnson for making an obscene gesture to the fans after the Hawks first round loss to the Celtics. The former D-leaguer was fined $25,000 for his actions.</p>
