Celtics F Pierce ready to return (AP)

Boston Celtics captain Paul Pierce says he is ready to return after missing three games with a sprained right thumb. Pierce practiced with the team on Monday and said he expected to play Tuesday in Detroit against the Pistons. Boston is coming off back-to-back home losses to Cleveland -- the top team in the Eastern Conference -- and the New Jersey Nets, the NBA's worst team with only six wins.
