Tony out, Eddie in, Lester claimed

ATLANTA — Bad and good news for current Celtic guards. And good news for a former Celtic backcourt man.

Tony Allen has flu-like symptoms and will not play tonight against the Hawks. He’s back at the hotel resting.

Eddie House flew in last night and is ready to go.

And Lester Hudson has been claimed off waivers by his hometown Memphis Grizzlies. That means the rest of his contract, with some $260,000 remaining, is guaranteed.
