Celtics' Amir Johnson: On court at shootaround

Johnson (illness) was on the court for the Celtics' morning shootaround and appears likely to play Monday against the Nets, Scott Souza of the Providence Journal reports.

Analysis:

The big man missed Saturday's game win over the Hornets with the illness, but it looks like that will be the extent of his absence. Assuming the Celtics sign off on Johnson's return, he should move back into the starting five at power forward, pushing Kelly Olynyk back to the bench.
