The Celtics missed starting center Kristaps Porzingis for the second half of Monday night’s Game 4 victory over the Heat, and 24 hours before returning home for Game 5, Boston made an unsurprising announcement.
Porzingis won’t suit up on Wednesday night and join the Celtics for their potential first-round series closeout battle at TD Garden, diagnosed with a right soleus strain, per a team-provided update.
