Brad Stevens said Wednesday that center Vitor Faverani would miss practice to undergo an MRI on his surgically repaired left knee. He amended that statement Thursday to say that Faverani did practice but was limited.

The plan is to have Faverani practice for 40 minutes Thursday, Stevens said, and for fellow big man Joel Anthony, who has been hampered by a groin strain, to participate in all but the scrimmage portions of practice.
