Madar (groin) may have a chance to return to action Tuesday against the Kings, MassLive.com reports.
Madar was held out of Saturday's game due to a groin injury, but he was able to go through Monday's light session, so there's a chance that the rookie guard could return to action for Tuesday's championship game. "We didn't go hard today but he practiced," Celtics Summer League head coach Joe Mazzulla said. "He's doing a great job in his treatment sessions and trying to get ready. He's eager to play. We'll see how he responds to today's practice. It's something we'll talk about in the morning as well."
