No timetable for return of Celtics center Faverani

Vitor Faverani has been missing in action since training camp, when he was shut down due to swelling in his surgically repaired left knee.

Faverani had torn the meniscus in that knee last season and underwent surgery on March 7 to repair the injury. He again went under the knife on Oct. 13 in Spain, a procedure that cleaned up inflammation in the knee.

“I can’t do anything on the court now,” he said. “So I work in the pool a lot, I work in the gym (and on the bike). That’s what I can do now.”

He stated that no updated time frames for a possible return have been discussed with team doctors.
