Celtics' Stevens: Bradley out for next 2 games vs. Hawks

BOSTON - Celtics coach Brad Stevens says that starting guard Avery Bradley is out for Boston's next two playoff games against the Hawks with a right hamstring injury and ''very unlikely'' to return for the remainder of the first-round series.

Stevens said Wednesday that he was still awaiting word from an MRI that Bradley underwent upon Boston's return from Atlanta. Game 3 is set for Friday in Boston.

In addition, Stevens said center Kelly Olynyk is questionable with a sore right shoulder. Olynyk sat out Game 2 after playing just 12 minutes in Game 1.

The only positive note is that backup point guard Marcus Smart, who suffered bruised ribs in Game 2, will likely be able to practice on Thursday.

Boston has lost its last seven playoff games.
