Gooden (calf) has been cleared to play in Monday's game against the Celtics, J. Michael of CSN Mid-Atlantic reports.
Gooden resumed practicing prior to the postponement of Saturday's game with the Jazz and fully participated in the team's morning shootaround Monday, so he'll receive clearance to play after missing the team's previous three games. The calf has been a recurring problem all season for Gooden, but after taking some more time off to recover, it looks like he's now back to full health. Gooden is averaging 14.8 minutes over his 12 appearances on the campaign and is unlikely to become a major cog in coach Randy Wittman's rotation.
