Celtics' Szczerbiak done for the season

Boston Celtics forward Wally Szczerbiak needs surgery on his left knee and will miss the final seven games of the regular season, the Associated Press is reporting today, dealing another blow to the team's fading playoff hopes.

The Celtics acquired Szczerbiak, who is 29, in a multiplayer deal with the Minnesota Timberwolves on Jan. 26. Since coming to Boston, he has averaged 17.5 points over 32 games.

The team expects Szczerbiak to be ready for the start of training camp in October, the AP reports.
