Wizards' Markieff Morris: Will play in Game 2 vs. Celtics

Morris (ankle) has been cleared to play in Tuesday's Game 2 against the Celtics, Shams Charania of Yahoo! Sports reports.

Morris went through an extensive workout during pregame warmups and he appeared to be without any lingering discomfort, so he's officially been given the green light to take the court. Look for Morris to take his usual spot in the starting lineup, although he could see his minutes limited a bit if he experiences any setbacks during Tuesday's contest. Morris averaged 11.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 2.0 blocks across 28.5 minutes in the first six games of the playoffs before exiting early from Sunday's Game 1 against the Celtics.
