After the season, the Celtics issued the official statement that Jefferson had...

Al Jefferson, Boston Celtics: Last Celts pic for a while, but we couldn’t pass this one up. Boston fans can tell you this guy’s prison team just acquired a valuable trading chip. Remember, anything is possible. (Found by Russ at the Celtics’ victory parade.)

The Wolves concluded their first 60-loss season since before Kevin Garnett came to town with Wednesday’s improbable 110-101 comeback overtime victory over Milwaukee, a game which they led by eight early, trailed by 16 in the third quarter and then came back to win with Al Jefferson resting for all but one minute of the fourth quarter and all of overtime.
