Boston Celtics forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Minnesota. It's the beginning of a back-to-back for Boston and Porzingis has started to skip games in these situations, so he could take the night off on Wednesday. Al Horford should then feature heavily in the rotation, although the veteran is questionable himself with an illness. Either way, it's not a good matchup for Boston's bigs, as Minnesota boasts the most efficient defense in the league, with Rudy Gobert anchoring things in the paint.
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (eye) will be available for Monday's rematch with the Indiana Pacers after exiting Saturday's tilt following six minutes of action. Porzingis is dealing with irritation in his right eye after Aaron Nesmith poked him in their last time out, but it won't be enough to hold him out of this contest. The 28-year-old sharpshooting big man is returning third-round fantasy numbers in nine-category leagues during his Celtics debut season, amassing 19.8 points on 53.6% shooting from the field, 7.1 rebounds, 1.7 three-pointers, and 1.7 blocks per game. Porzingis should not face any minute restrictions on Monday, and he finds himself in a potential eruption spot with Jayson Tatum (ankle) out against a Pacers defense bleeding the second-most points per game (124.1) this year.
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (eye) has been listed as questionable for the team's game against the Indiana Pacers on Monday as he deals with right eye irritation. It's unclear how bad the irritation is right now, but he first suffered the injury during the first quarter against the Pacers on Saturday and had to leave the game after getting hit in the eye while fighting for a rebound. They'll likely wait for shootaround to see if his eye healed enough to comfortably be on the floor. If he's unable to suit up, Al Horford will move into the starting lineup again and Luke Kornet will be the first big man off of the bench. Horford is always a quality streaming option when Porzingis doesn't play, regardless of league size.
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (eye) is considered questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The star big man was poked in the eye during the first quarter and has yet to return to the contest. The expectation is that Al Horford will see a bigger role in the second half, assuming Porzingis is unable to return. This sounds like minor issue that shouldn't sideline Porzingis more than just this game.
