The Celtics allowed another 20-point comeback from the Knicks on Wednesday, losing 91-90 after going cold in the fourth quarter. Porzingis was still nursing an illness that forced him out of the second half of Game 1, coming off the bench in Game 2 and scoring eight points with four rebounds in just 14 minutes.

I’ve had ups and downs throughout up until this point,” Porzingis said. He played 14 minutes as the Celtics dropped to 0-2 in the playoff series.

Since the 2025 NBA Playoffs started, something has been off with Boston Celtics big man Kristaps Porzingis. Seven games into their playoff run, Porzingis is averaging 9.7 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting 34.9% from the field and 16.7% from three.
