The Celtics are trying to change the trend of playing badly on the road against lesser teams and they need a victory tonight in the first game of a back-to-back against the Washington Wizards.

*Chris Wilcox is out with a strained left shoulder but Doc Rivers said he could return tomorrow night in the rematch.

*Paul Pierce came off his season debut Friday with his body sore but his bruised right heel fine. He will start.

*Washington's Jan Vesely is out with a sore right hip. He was the sixth overall pick in the draft.
