Celtics center Nikola Vucevic suffers a fractured ring finger on his right hand during Friday's 120-100 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. He is set for surgery Saturday and is expected to miss about a month, according to sources. Vucevic played only two minutes before leaving the game. This marks his 12th appearance with Boston after being traded from the Chicago Bulls last month. The 15-year NBA veteran averages 11.4 points and 7.8 rebounds in 23.5 minutes per game, offering crucial depth in the frontcourt alongside Neemias Queta and Luka Garza. Vucevic's injury coincides with superstar Jayson Tatum's return after a 10-month recovery from a torn Achilles.
