Kristaps Porzingis News, Rumors, Updates - Atlanta Hawks

Limps to locker room Porzingis walked to the locker room during the first half of Monday's Game 4 against the Heat with an apparent lower body injury, Souichi Terada of The Springfield Republican repor...

Impact Porzingis came up limping with a few minutes remaining in the second quarter, and he immediately called to the bench for a sub and walked gingerly to the locker room to be evaluated further. Al Horford and Luke Kornet would be in line for larger workloads in the frontcourt if Porzingis is unable to return.

Stuffs stat line Saturday Porzingis logged 18 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Saturday's 104-84 victory over the Heat in Game 3 of...

Impact Porzingis was active on both ends of the court, and even though he cooled down after a strong start in which he scored Boston's first eight points, he still finished with a solid output despite playing just 27 minutes. The limit in playing time was probably related to the nature of the game since it was a blowout from the second quarter onwards, meaning Porzingis shouldn't have problems handling his regular workload in Game 4 on Monday. Porzingis has scored 18 points in two of his three appearances in the series.

Impact Porzingis connected on a team-high-tying mark from three while ending two points shy of the 20-point mark and notching a team-high-tying pair of blocks to help Boston to a Game 1 win in the first round of the postseason. Porzingis connected on at least four threes in four outings during the regular season, entering the playoffs with 15-point outings in eight of his final 10 games.

Sitting out again Sunday Porzingis will be rested for Sunday's game against the Wizards.

Impact No surprise here, as the Celtics are just trying to keep their key players fresh for the playoffs. Derrick White, Jrue Holiday, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Al Horford will also be held out.

Ruled out for Friday Porzingis (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Charlotte, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Impact The Celtics are exercising caution in the second half of a back-to-back set, and Porzingis will have a chance to rest with the postseason looming. His final chance to return during the regular season will be Sunday against Washington, while Xavier Tillman, Luke Kornet and Neemias Queta could see increased run against Charlotte since Porzingis and Al Horford (toe) have both been ruled out.

Iffy for Friday Porzingis is questionable for Friday's game against the Hornets due to right hamstring injury management, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Porzingis, Jayson Tatum (knee), Jaylen Brown (hand), Jrue Holiday (knee), Derrick White (ankle) and Al Horford (toe) are all questionable. Even if all of Boston's regulars suit up, they may not play usual minutes. Porzingis has appeared in 11 of the last 13 games, averaging 18.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.5 blocks and 1.2 steals in 28.9 minutes per game.

APRIL 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Comes close to double-double Porzingis ended Thursday's 118-109 loss to the Knicks with 14 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 25 minutes.

Impact Porzingis returned from a one-game absence, and while he only played 25 minutes, he still ended just two rebounds away from a double-double. Given his injury history and how cautious the Celtics have been with him all season long, it remains to be seen how available Porzingis might be for the final two games of the season, as the Celtics have nothing to play for in their upcoming two contests.

Available for Thursday's game Porzingis (hamstring) is available for Thursday's game against the Knicks, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Porzingis was questionable for Thursday's matchup due to his hamstring issue, but he'll be back in action following a one-game absence. He's posted double-doubles in four of his last five appearances, averaging 19.6 points, 10.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 3.2 blocks in 28.6 minutes per game.

APRIL 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Thursday Porzingis (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Porzingis, who missed Tuesday's loss to Milwaukee, is one of six Celtics listed as questionable, so it's unclear what Boston's rotation will look like Thursday. With the No. 1 seed locked up, Boston continues to rest its regulars occasionally, but Porzingis has appeared in 10 of the Celtics' last 12 games, averaging 19.1 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 2.5 blocks and 1.3 steals in 29.3 minutes during that stretch.
