The news for the Boston Celtics just keeps getting worse as the playoffs near. On the same day that it was announced that Kevin Garnett might miss the entire playoffs. Celtics executive, Danny Ainge suffered a heart attack and is now at the Massachusetts General Hospital.
“The team’s executive director of basketball operations, who didn’t attend Wednesday night’s season finale against Washington because he felt sick, woke up with chest pains. Ainge was treated for a clogged artery, and is expected to stay in the hospital for several days. He is expected to miss tomorrow’s playoff opener against Chicago at TD Banknorth Garden.
According to WCVB-TV, the artery was completely clogged, and doctors inserted a stent to relieve the problem.”
The Celtics are still one of the strongest teams in the league and despite, the loss of Kevin Garnett and the health of Danny Ainge heavy on their mind, hopefully Boston can still finish the season strong.
Get well Mr. Ainge!
