Banged up Sunday Porzingis is probable to return to Sunday's contest against Miami due to a low back contusion, Chris Forsberg of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact Porzingis gingerly walked to the locker room after fighting for a loose ball in the paint. Boston immediately announced that he was probable to return, so he appears to have been inflicted a minor blow.

Posts double-double Porzingis ended Friday's 133-129 win over the Wizards with 34 points (9-18 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 14-14 FT), 11 rebounds and one block in 33 minutes.

Impact Porzingis has scored at least 30 points in back-to-back games, something he hadn't accomplished all season long, and he continues to prove he can deliver when called upon duty. Porzingis is averaging 25.0 points and 8.2 rebounds per game over his last five outings, and while he's not expected to reach the 30-point mark on a regular basis going forward, he remains productive in terms of fantasy appeal. He's on pace to average at least 20 points per game for the sixth consecutive season.

Strikes for 31 against Atlanta Porzingis finished Wednesday's 125-117 victory over the Hawks with 31 points (13-19 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 31 minutes.

Impact The veteran big led the Celtics in scoring while delivering 30 or more points for the second time in his last six games. Porzingis is having his usual trouble staying on the court, missing five games since the beginning of January due to knee and ankle trouble, but he's been productive when he's been available -- over his last nine contests, the 28-year-old is averaging 21.7 points, 6.8 boards, 2.6 threes, 2.3 blocks and 2.1 assists while shooting 53.2 percent from the floor and 45.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Strong effort in blowout win Porzingis produced 26 points (10-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 28 minutes during Sunday's 131-91 victory over the Grizzlies.

Impact Porzingis' skill set was on full display, as he knocked down shots from the perimeter, got a few open dunks and protected the paint on defense. Since missing three of four games, Porzingis has appeared in three straight matchups, averaging 20.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.7 blocks and 2.3 assists in 29.3 minutes during that stretch.

Decent two-way play in loss Porzingis supplied 17 points (7-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, five blocks and one steal over 29 minutes during Thursday's 114-105 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Porzingis struggled from the field and was particularly woeful from beyond the arc, as he missed six of his seven attempts from deep, but he salvaged his fantasy line by delivering strong contributions in other categories, particularly on the defensive end. Porzingis is averaging 18.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.2 blocks per game since the start of January.

NBA Roundtable: Who will be snubbed from the 2024 All-Star reserves?

Double-double against Pacers Porzingis notched 17 points (6-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one block across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 129-124 victory over Indiana.

Impact Making his return from a two-game absence due to a sprained ankle, Porzingis delivered his first double-double since Jan. 2 and his sixth of the season. The veteran big missed five games in total in January with various minor injuries, and in the 11 contests he was able to suit up for he averaged 18.3 points, 6.2 boards, 2.5 assists, 2.0 threes and 1.9 blocks while shooting 50.8 percent from the floor and 44.9 percent from beyond the arc. Porzingis' usage has predictably dropped in his first season with Boston while playing alongside the likes of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, but his efficiency has improved and he's on pace for his best blocks per game average since 2019-20.

Good to go Tuesday Porzingis (ankle) is active for Tuesday's game against Indiana.

Impact Porzingis has been dealing with a left ankle sprain, but he will return from a two-game absence Tuesday. He represents Boston's lone available big man, as Al Horford (neck) and Luke Kornet (hamstring) are both unavailable.

JANUARY 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Tuesday Porzingis (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pacers, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Porzingis has missed back-to-back games and three of Boston's last four contests due to a left ankle sprain. Al Horford (neck) is out and Luke Kornet (hamstring) is doubtful, so if Porzingis is sidelined again, Boston's frontcourt will be shorthanded versus Indiana.

JANUARY 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Downgraded to out Porzingis (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Impact Despite being active at the team's morning shootaround, Porzingis has been downgraded from questionable to out, joining Luke Kornet (hamstring) on the sidelines. Al Horford (neck) is available and should start in Porzingis' absence once again. Porzingis' next chance to suit up will come during the second half of Boston's back-to-back set versus Indiana on Tuesday, but his availability for that contest will likely be a game-time decision.

Active at shootaround Porzingis, who's listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain, was active during Boston's morning shootaround ahead of Monday's game against the Pelicans, Justin Turpin of WEEI....

Impact Porzingis missed Saturday's blowout loss to the Clippers after tweaking his ankle Thursday versus the Heat. However, he's trending in the right direction to return Monday, but his official availability likely won't be known until closer to the 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

JANUARY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Monday Porzingis (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Pelicans, Marc D'Amico of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Porzingis tweaked his ankle Thursday versus the Heat and was sidelined for Saturday's loss to the Clippers. Al Horford (neck) would usually be the primary beneficiary for an increased role in Porzingis' absence, but the veteran is also questionable, while Luke Kornet (hamstring) is doubtful, so it's unclear what Boston's frontcourt will look like versus New Orleans.
