The Washington Wizards will get the Boston Celtics' best shot when they play tonight at 6 p.m. Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce will both return to the Celtics' lineup after nursing injuries over the past couple weeks. Via Celtics' radio play-by-play voice Sean Grande:
What you're waiting for; Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce return tonight. Avery Bradley will play. Bass and Green join them in the starting 5.

Garnett had not played since March 22 with a left ankle injury, while Pierce has been in and out of the lineup over the past couple weeks with a right ankle ailment.
Doc Rivers said he expects Garnett to be limited in his first game back.
Doc confirms that KG, Pierce and Bradley will be back in the lineup tonight. "I'll watch Kevin, I doubt if he plays his normal minutes..."
