Celtics SF Wallace out indefinitely after MRI reveals torn meniscus
Boston Celtics small forward Gerald Wallace's season is likely over after an MRI revealed significant damage to his meniscus.
Brad Stevens says an MRI has revealed a torn meniscus for Gerald Wallace. Says Wallace had been playing with pain for some time.

Wallace had 12 points and 10 rebounds for his first double-double of the season on Wednesday against the Atlanta Hawks, but recorded just 12 combined points and five total rebounds over the previous two contests.
The 31-year-old was already dealing with bone spurs in his ankle. Surgical procedures to repair his meniscus and have the bone spurs removed would most likely end his season.
Wallace has torn meniscus. Could have knee and ankle surgery soon. Chance his season is done.
