Rookie guard Gabe Pruitt is back with the Celtics. He was promoted from Utah of the NBA Development League yesterday and had 7 points on 3-of-3 shooting in five minutes in the win. His flight from Salt Lake City left on time Thursday but was delayed when the plane neared Boston. The Bucks' flight from Milwaukee Thursday was delayed five hours.

"We did leave on time, but when we got close, we circled around in the air for about 40-45 minutes," Pruitt said. "Good thing is that Delta has those complimentary movies."

The Celtics decided to bring Pruitt back after the team practiced Thursday with only 10 players because of injuries.
