Red Auerbach Replaces Injured Russell For Celtics
Arnold Red Auerbach will coach the Boston Celtics for about a week to 10 days after Bill Russell suffered an acute ligament knee strain. Russell will be sidelined at least 10 days and is hospitalised for rest and evaluation. The injury occurred late in Sunday’s 95-94 loss to the New York Knickerbockers, with Auerbach returning to coaching duties as Jim Barnes handles the center role. The Celtics, now 4 1/2 games behind the Bullets, face Houston San Diego and the Baltimore Bullets in upcoming games.
