Celtics bench Kristaps Porziņģis today for…

Kristaps Porzingis is on the injury report for Tuesday’s game.

 

 

On Tuesday evening, the Boston Celtics will be in Ohio for a showdown with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

For the game, the Celtics could remain without one of their best players, as 2018 NBA All-Star Kristaps Porzingis is on the injury report.

 

Porzingis missed the team’s last game, so this would be his second straight out of the lineup (if he doesn’t play).

Porzingis is in his first season with Boston and has been an excellent addition to the team.

 

He is currently averaging 20.3 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.8 blocks per contest while shooting 52.6% from the field and 37.5% from the three-point range in 44 games.

 

The Celtics are the first seed in the Eastern Conference (and the best team in the NBA) with an impressive 48-12 record in 60 games.

They are in the middle of an 11-game winning streak and most recently beat Klay Thompson and the Golden State Warriors by a score of 140-88.

Following the Cavs, the Celtics will remain on the road and visit the Denver Nuggets on Thursday evening in Colorado.
