Dealing with quad contusion Porzingis is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors due to a left quadriceps contusion, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Porzingis was solid versus his former team Friday, posting 24 points (8-14 FG), six rebounds, two assists and a block in 29 minutes during a blowout win over Dallas. This is a new injury for the big man, and if it forces him to the sideline, Al Horford would presumably slide into the starting lineup.

Productive in win over Dallas Porzingis supplied 24 points (8-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block in 29 minutes during Friday's 138-110 victory over the Mavericks.

Impact Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown led the way for the Celtics on offense, but Porzingis still delivered a solid outing, and the big man continues to find a role in Boston's offensive scheme with each passing game. Porzingis is averaging 23.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.9 blocks per game over his last 10 appearances.

Kristaps Porzingis becoming NBA's best post-up player can be the difference for Celtics in championship run | Sporting News Here's how the Celtics have turned Kristaps Porzingis into the best post-up player in the NBA.

MARCH 1, 2024 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Records double-double Porzingis totaled 23 points (5-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 12-12 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 117-99 victory over the 76ers.

Impact Porzingis made his presence felt on both ends of the court en route to posting his third double-double over his last 10 appearances. Even though he has the length to be an absolute menace on the boards, Porzingis can thrive in other areas as well, and he's been outstanding as a scorer in recent weeks, hitting the 20-point threshold in six of his last eight contests. He might hold a secondary role on offense behind Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown on most nights, but he's certainly doing the most of his touches on a nightly basis.

Solid output in win Saturday Porzingis had 22 points (7-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block in 32 minutes during Saturday's 116-102 win over the Knicks.

Impact Porzingis' primary responsibility Saturday was to score, and he accomplished that goal by delivering his first 20-point outing since Feb. 11. The star big man had a rough time adjusting to a secondary role on offense alongside Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. However, he seems to be finding his spots and playing better as the season advances. Porzingis is averaging 23.0 points per game in February, which represents his highest average for any single month in this term.

Off the injury report Porzingis (ankle) is not being listed on the injury report ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Bulls, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Porzingis tweaked his ankle in Boston's final game heading into the break, but he'll be good to go for Thursday's game and should see his usual workload. Managers can go ahead and get him active.

Expects to be fine for next game Porzingis sat out the entire second half of Wednesday's 136-86 win over the Nets after rolling his ankle in the second quarter, but he said he would have been available to return h...

Impact Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla seemed to echo Porzingis' sentiments after the game, so fantasy managers shouldn't panic too much about the big man's early exit. Porzingis will have ample time to recover from the ankle sprain, as the Celtics will head into the All-Star break before returning to play their next game Feb. 22 in Chicago.

Not expected to return Porzingis went to the locker room right before halftime with an ankle injury and was spotted on the bench with a big wrap on his ankle to open up the second half, Keith Smith of Sp...

Impact While there hasn't been any official designation for Porzingis's return, the wrap on his ankle and the lopsided score makes it seem likely that he will remain on the bench. Luke Kornet started the second half in his place and Neemias Queta should see more action.

FEBRUARY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not on injury report Porzinigs (back) isn't listed on Boston's injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Nets, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Impact Porzingis missed Tuesday's win over Brooklyn to rest his back but will be back in action for Wednesday's rematch. Al Horford (toe) and Xavier Tillman (knee) are both out, so Porzinigs will likely need to play heavy minutes in Boston's frontcourt.

FEBRUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Tuesday Porzingis (back) is inactive for Tuesday's game against Brooklyn, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com report.

Impact Porzingis exited and returned to a victory over Miami on Sunday due to back troubles, and a back bruise will officially sideline him Tuesday. Simultaneously, Porzingis resting in a back-to-back set has been standard operating procedure for Boston, so he is a candidate to return to action Wednesday in a rematch against Brooklyn.

Questionable for Tuesday Porzingis is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nets due to a low back contusion, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Porzingis sustained his back injury in Sunday's game against the Heat but was able to return to the contest. However, it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to suit up Tuesday. Xavier Tillman (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup, so Luke Kornet and Al Horford should see additional playing time if Porzingis is unavailable.

Sniffs double-double Porzingis recorded 25 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 32 minutes during Sunday's 110-106 victory over Miami.

Impact Porzingis has experienced an uptick in his play in recent weeks, and his scoring numbers have improved drastically, to the point that he's been Boston's second-best offensive player over the last few weeks, even ahead of Jaylen Brown. The big man is averaging 26.6 points, 7.6 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game since the beginning of February.

Returns to Sunday's game Porzingis (back) returned to the court for the Celtics to begin the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Heat, Abby Chin of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact Porzingis exited the game with 7:21 remaining in the third quarter and retreated to the locker room, with the big man later being diagnosed with a low-back contusion. He was listed as probable to return to the contest, and his ability to check into the game to begin the fourth quarter suggests Porzingis' back issue shouldn't be much of a concern moving forward.
