Welcome to TD Garden, where the Boston Celtics will take on the Orlando Magic at 7:30 p.m. The teams meet again in a delayed home-and-home on Thursday night.

Ray Allen just walked onto the parquet floor as the Celtics prepared for their team walkthrough, which is closed to the media. The glimpse of Allen we got to see looked every bit like his usual robotic self. He was in uniform and walking without a limp and without a heavy ankle brace. His status for tonight's game is questionable.

Didn't get to see if Rajon Rondo was on the court before being kicked off, but imagine he can walk through plays even with an injured wrist. Whether he plays tonight is also up in the air. The Celtics probably need both players to beat a surging Orlando team, who could win their fifth straight road game tonight.

Back with more in a bit.
