Kelly Olynyk (shoulder) should be ready to play Feb. 19 against the Jazz

Celtics GM Danny Ainge said that Olynyk (shoulder) should be ready to play in the Celtics' first game out of the All-Star break Feb. 19 against the Jazz, Henry McKenna of the Boston Globe reports.

Analysis:

Olynyk was removed from Wednesday's 139-134 overtime victory over the Clippers in the second quarter following a collision with DeAndre Jordan, which left the Celtics big man with a bruised right shoulder. The Celtics sent him in for X-rays after the game for precautionary purposes, but it appears nothing concerning turned up. Look for Olynyk to fill his usual role as one of the first frontcourt players off the bench when the team returns to action Feb. 19.
