Gallinari suffered the injury last weekend in Italy’s FIBA World Cup qualifying game against Georgia. The injury occurred as Gallinari received a bounce pass in the lane. It was a non-contact injury.

Gallinari signed a two-year deal for the midlevel exception this offseason but will now miss the entire first season of his contract with Boston. He was considered to be a key acquisition for the Celtics as Boston looks to build on the team’s first NBA Finals appearance since 2010.
