With the Miami Heat's win Wednesday night in their first-round series against the Sixers, the C's are left with just two days of practice remaining before their travel day Saturday. They're locked into a Game 1 meeting with the Heat on Sunday afternoon.
By rushing Shaq back Thursday, the C's are giving the big man a chance to be ready for Sunday at American Airlines Arena. It's not a slam dunk that the 39-year-old center will play the opener against the Heat, but it's a possibility.
The real test for Shaq will be Friday, when he attempts to go through a full-contact practice with his Celtic teammates.
