Your (Brief) Morning Dump… Where Ainge doesn’t think Crowder’s injury is serious

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big story line. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.

I’m a little hesitant to high-five myself because we’ve seen other Celtics players – Marcus Smart (knee) and Kelly Olynyk (shoulder) – miss significant time with injuries that didn’t set off alarm bells immediately.

So while Danny says it’s not that serious, I’m still expecting Jae to miss a few games.
