Bill Walker out 6-8 weeks

Celtics just put out the update.

Doc says meniscus tear for Bill Walker and he'll have surgery within a week. Expected out at least 6-8 weeks.

I wonder what that means for him staying on the team?

UPDATE

Surgery is scheduled for tomorrowThe Globe makes it seem that Walker can't be cut now.

An MRI on Bill Walker's right knee revealed a torn meniscus and he will
miss six to eight weeks, meaning the Celtics would have to carry an
injured Walker on their roster into the regular season.

This doesn't seem like TOO big of a deal, since Michael Sweetney is the 16th guy on the roster and he's going to get cut… barring something shocking.
