Celtics forward Al Jefferson, out with a sprained ankle, had been hoping to be back on the floor for Friday night's game, according to the Boston Globe. It won't happen. Jefferson still hasn't practiced and now is shooting for Wednesday, when the Celtics host the Bulls. ''Doc wants me back at 100 percent, not 80 percent," Jefferson said. He sprained his ankle on the first day of workouts.

Jefferson was solid as a rookie last season, though his season was cut short by an ankle injury. There's nothing good about being 20 years old and already suffering multiple ankle injuries. Jefferson should log more minutes with Antoine Walker in Miami, which in turn should boost his stats, if he gets healthy.
