Paul Pierce will not travel with the Boston Celtics up to Oakland for their game on Friday versus the Warriors.
“I’m going to stay off it,” said Pierce, who won’t see Boston play live again until next Wednesday’s home game against Cleveland. “Getting up and around with this boot on is too much wear and tear.
“It’s better if I stay put. The more I walk, the more it starts hurting.”

The 76ers said goodbye to Allen Iverson and their 12-game losing streak all on the same night.
Andre Iguodala scored a career-high 31 points and had nine assists to help Philadelphia beat Boston 98-83 on Friday night, just hours after the trade of their troubled superstar became official.
"It's a relief," said Samuel Dalembert, who had 14 points and 12 rebounds to help the Sixers to their first victory since beating Chicago on Nov. 24. "It's like carrying a big bag of potatoes, man, for a long time. It was crazy."
