Darko Milicic (wrist) sat out another game on Sunday, but Doc Rivers said he isn't concerned about the injury. Darko's absence is precautionary, and we expect him to have a sizeable spot in the rotation on opening night. He will likely even start a few games at center this season, depending upon matchups, so keep an eye on him in deep leagues.

Darko Milicic is expected to sit out Boston's games on Tuesday and Thursday with a "mild right wrist injury." Doc Rivers is hopeful that Darko will return to action vs. the Knicks on Saturday. The underachieving veteran has actually been playing well for the Celtics this preseason, and could even start at center on occasion, when Boston wants to play a big lineup with Kevin Garnett at PF.

Darko Milicic had six points, three rebounds and a block before leaving Monday's game with a right wrist injury. He has strained ligaments and might need an injection for the pain, leaving him iffy for Tuesday's preseason game. Believe it or not, Darko is working nicely into Boston's plans, but it would still be a shock to see him worth drafting in fantasy leagues. He is day-to-day for now.

Darko Milicic played well in his preseason opener for the Celtics, racking up six rebounds and two blocks in 16 minutes. The Celtics have a huge hole at center, with Kevin Garnett playing out of position as the starter, so an effective Milicic would be big for Boston. We doubt he'll be worth owning in fantasy, but Darko is worth keeping an eye on.

Darko Milicic took a "hard spill" at practice on Wednesday and is unlikely to return. Milicic walked off on his own, so we're not overly concerned about his health at the moment. Even if he's in peak condition, Darko is simply in Boston for depth at the center position.

Celtics sign F/C Darko Milicic. The transaction is now official and Milicic will be nothing more than a big body behind Kevin Garnett during his tenure in Boston. We sincerely hope somebody films the first practice session between KG and Darko.

Updating a previous item, the Celtics will sign Darko Milicic. Terms of the deal are not yet disclosed, but it's hard to imagine Milicic getting anything more than a minimum deal. He'll serve as depth behind Kevin Garnett and not much more.

The Celtics are considered the "favorite" to sign Darko Milicic. We're taking this with a grain of salt as the report originated in Europe, but it's worth noting that the C's had previously expressed interest in the big man. Milicic apparently turned down a three-year, $6M offer from Real Madrid, and the Celtics could use some more size down low. Milicic has no fantasy value.

Real Madrid denied a report that the team was negotiating with Darko Milicic. Milicic has had no market in the NBA after being amnestied by the Timberwolves and is reportedly uninterested in heading overseas. He may have to wait for a training camp injury to get a serious look, if he gets one at all.

Real Madrid reportedly finds unrestricted free agent Darko Milicic "tempting." Milicic, who was amnestied by the Timberwolves, cleared waivers and has had no market stateside in the NBA, previously said through his agent that he is not looking to play overseas. However, Darko may not have an option as no team has expressed interest in bringing him into the fold. He has career averages of 6.0 points and 4.2 rebounds on 46 percent shooting after being drafted No. 2 overall back in 2003.
