Oklahoma City shooting guard Dion Waiters will return to the Thunder's lineup on Wednesday, according to The Oklahoman's Anthony Slater.

Waiters has missed Oklahoma City's last four contests after taking a personal leave following the death of his brother.

The 24-year-old is averaging 9.6 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.9 assists on 39.6 percent shooting in 2015-16.

The Thunder will face the Boston Celtics on Wednesday - a team that's dropped two straight after losing Jae Crowder to an ankle injury.
