UPDATE: Kristaps Porzingis' Current Injury Status For Celtics-Cavs Game
UPDATE: Kristaps Porzingis is available.
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).
