Keyon Dooling (illness) returned to the court for shootaround on Saturday.

It seems the veteran PG will be ready to go for Game 7, though technically he's still a game-time decision. He's averaging nine minutes per game in the playoffs in relief of Rajon Rondo.

Keyon Dooling (illness) did not practice on Friday and is questionable to play in Game 7 against the Sixers on Saturday.

Dooling would be in line for more minutes with Avery Bradley's (shoulder) surgery forcing Ray Allen into the starting five, but the veteran point guard is not a lock to play in Game 7 against Philly. We'll have an update on his status when one becomes available.

Keyon Dooling started for the depleted Celtics on Friday night and finished with 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting (including three 3s) with two rebounds, three assists and a steal.

Dooling had scored a combined seven points in his last three games, but stepped up tonight with the Celtics resting most of their starters. He will return to a limited role once everyone is back and healthy.

Keyon Dooling has picked up a DNP-Coach's Decision in each of the last two games.

Dooling is averaging just 14 minutes per game this season, and Doc Rivers said that he's likely to sit against bigger backcourts. He shouldn't be on the fantasy radar in any fantasy format with the emergence of Avery Bradley.

Keyon Dooling (hip) returned to action on Sunday, going scoreless in nine minutes off the bench.

Dooling had missed 16 of the previous 17 games and admitted that he'll probably need treatment for his ailments all season. "It's a good start," he said after Sunday's game. "I've got to work my way back into the rotation and hopefully earn my minutes."

Keyon Dooling, who has missed the last nine games due to a hip injury, will make his return on Sunday against the Bulls.

Dooling will provide some depth off the bench for the C's, but should be ignored in all fantasy leagues.

Coach Doc Rivers said Keyon Dooling (hip) has a chance to return before the All-Star break.

Dooling has appeared in just one game since Jan. 11. Avery Bradley will continue to serve as Rajon Rondo's backup.

Keyon Dooling (hip) has been ruled out for Tuesday.

Dooling is hoping to be back for Thursday's game against the Lakers, but he's had his first season with the Celtics marred by injury. When he does return, Dooling will slide into his reserve role off the bench.

Keyon Dooling (hip) isn't expected to return any time soon.

Dooling can't shake the injury bug this season, and he said his injury is making it difficult for him to sleep. Avery Bradley continues to play heavy minutes at PG with both Dooling and Rajon Rondo on the mend.

Keyon Dooling (hip) has been ruled out for the Celtics game on Friday night.

Dooling should not be on any fantasy rosters right now, but he could have been in line for more playing time with Rajon Rondo (wrist) banged up right now.

Keyon Dooling returned to action on Thursday January 26.

Keyon Dooling left Thursday's game with a hip pointer and did not return.

If it's not one thing it's another for the Celtics right now. Dooling finished with one 3-point bucket to his credit on two shot attempts in nine minutes.

Keyon Dooling (knee) said he plans on returning Thursday.

Keyon Dooling (knee) missed his fifth straight game on Friday and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Wizards.

Dooling would be an interesting spot-start if he's given a start with Rajon Rondo (wrist) out, but that's about it. The Celtics scored just 71 points against a struggling Suns team on Friday, so they might opt for the veteran hand over Avery Bradley, who was kept away from PG duties in the loss.

Keyon Dooling (knee) is unlikely to play on Friday.

Dooling had been targeting Friday for his return, but he had a setback with his injury and was unable to practice on Thursday. Doc Rivers said "I don't know" when asked when Dooling will return. Dooling has missed the last four games.

Keyon Dooling (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Suns.

Dooling did not practice Thursday. It's really bad timing for him as Rajon Rondo (wrist) is expected to be sidelined at least one game. Avery Bradley was the Celtics' first-team point guard at Thursday's practice.

Keyon Dooling said that his knee injury is specifically related to his MCL.

"A big part of my game is lateral quickness as far as defense," he said. Dooling admitted that element of his game is limited with the injury, and he doesn't know the extent of it other than it's related to his MCL. Dooling remains hopeful to return on Friday.

Keyon Dooling (knee) did not participate in shootaround on Wednesday.

Dooling was taking shots and doing light drills on the side, so his target date of a Friday return remains very much in sight. He'll return to a reserve role in the second unit once he's healthy, but doesn't warrant consideration outside of very deep leagues.

Keyon Dooling returned to action on Monday January 16.

Keyon Dooling (knee) is "likely" to return on Friday.

Dooling was expected to miss a week with his knee injury and a Friday return would confirm that timetable. Once he returns, he'll resume his backup role in the rotation but won't be of interest to fantasy owners in standard sized leagues.
