The Wizards say All-Star point guard John Wall will be active and in uniform Thursday night, but will not play against the Pistons.
Wall had surgery on his left knee Jan. 31. He joined the Wizards for his first full-contact practice since the procedure on Saturday.
The Wizards have lost three of four games, falling to seventh place in the East.
The team is 15-11 without him during his current absence and 20-17 overall this season without him overall.
