Boston Celtics forward Jae Crowder will return to practice on Wednesday, coach Brad Stevens told reporters Monday.

Crowder has not played since March 11 due to a high ankle sprain. He has missed seven games entering Monday, during which the Celtics have gone 4–3.

Stevens told reporters Crowder will be re-evaluated after he practices Wednesday. 

Crowder played in Boston’s first 66 games of the season before his injury. He was averaging 14.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.9 assists in over 31 minutes per game.
