Things are looking up for the Boston Celtics on the injury front as they prepare for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards.

No, they won't be at full strength -- we're not entirely sure we'll ever see that this season with the way things are trending -- but two specific players could be good to go.

Forward Semi Ojeleye and center Robert Williams both are probable to play against the Wizards.

Williams has missed the last two contests after a five-game, Western Conference road trip last week.

Head coach Brad Stevens on Thursday revealed the big man was experiencing general soreness in his left hip -- the same one he missed time for last season -- after that stretch.

Ojeleye, meanwhile, was ruled out for the remainder of the Celtics' game against the Detroit Pistons on Friday after appearing to hurt his knee. Stevens shared after the loss that the staff was hopeful Ojeleye didn't experience anything major, and that seems to be the case.

Marcus Smart and Romeo Langford remain out for the immediate future -- though Smart is feeling better every day while rehabbing from his calf injury and we could see Langford back sometime after the All-Star break.

The Celtics and Wizards tip off Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
