Nelson (ankle) is considered a game-time call for Wednesday's game against Brooklyn.

Analysis:

A sprained ankle has kept Nelson out of the Celtics' last two contests, but he said Tuesday that his condition is improving. He'll likely test it out during shootaround before making a final call. If he's cleared, he'll likely come off the bench. In six games since coming over from Dallas, Nelson is yet to top nine points, but he's notched three games of eight or more assists.
