SALT LAKE CITY -- Boston forward [ame="http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=261"]Kevin Garnett Stats, News, Photos - Boston Celtics - ESPN[/ame] was injured late in the second quarter of the Celtics' 90-85 loss to Utah on Thursday night and went hopping on one foot toward the locker room.
The Celtics said he strained his right knee and would not return.
Garnett released a statement after the game, saying he would have the knee re-examined on Friday.
"We should have more information at that time. Obviously, I would much rather be playing instead of giving this statement," Garnett said.
Garnett injured his right leg while going up for an alley-oop late in the first half. He landed gingerly and motioned immediately to the bench for a substitute, then hopped on his good foot toward the locker room.
He warmed up with his teammates before the second half, but the Celtics weren't going to take any chances with the superstar for a regular season game when Boston already had the best record in the Eastern Conference.
