Avery Bradley suffered a rib injury during the loss to the New Orleans Hornets and might miss some time to recover. After reviewing his game time on the floor, it appears that he injured himself while attempting to steal the ball from Robin Lopez in the fourth quarter. With about 4:32 remaining in the fourth quarter, AB lunged at Lopez attempting to steal the ball, and as he did this, Lopez turned and they collided. On the next possession, Lopez hits a jumper at the top of the key and you can see AB holding his side. He leaves the game shortly after, while officials review Paul Pierce’s foul on Greivis Vasquez to determine if it was a two or three-pointer. See CSNNE screen shot below:
