Well the C's dodged a huge bullet and another major injury to another one of their "bigs." Multiple sources have been tweet-reporting from Celtics practice today that Glen Davis will only be out 3-7 days (per Doc Rivers). Here is one tweet via ESPNBoston's Chris Forsberg:

The piece about Ray Allen refers to his absence in practice, which was due to nothing but a day off. Boston Herald beat writer Dan Duggan also reported on the status of Delonte West, which judging by both time tables, could be back along with Big Baby for Wednesday's game at home, against the LA Clippers:

Dan also reported (through Doc) that Shaq has looked good, but he's not quite ready. This has almost reached a semi-joking level since Shaq's been "close" since he's been out (he last played February 1st).

The health of this team is paramount heading into the playoffs. These guys all need to take as much time they need getting healthy for April, May and June, even if they have to sacrifice some games throughout the regular season.
