DALLAS — The Celtics had perfect attendance at their shootaround Friday morning before a Game 4 matchup against the Dallas Mavericks, including injured big man Kristaps Porzingis. The Celtics center is listed as questionable on the injury report but multiple reports have indicated that the big man will try to play in Game 4.
Porzingis missed Game 3 because of a “left posterior tibialis dislocation” injury suffered in the second half of Game 2. He was downgraded to out before testing out the injury on Wednesday night before Game 3 but the Celtics still managed to pull off their 10th straight postseason win with Xavier Tillman playing bench minutes in Porzingis’ place.
