Holiday recently opened up about the impact Porzingis has on Boston's ability to stack victories after a recent win over the Denver Nuggets.

Since the big man returned to the lineup, Boston has been inconsistent. Porziņģis's performance against Denver on Tuesday was encouraging.

Kristaps Porzingis kept his productivity rolling after calling out the Celtics' effort at Toronto on Wednesday, helping Boston get right with a win.

"When we're not giving our all, I think that's the most deserved boos," Kristaps Porziņģis said after Friday's loss to the Kings.

The Celtics built a 20-point advantage into the second half behind 20-point games from Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis to easily defeat an injured Magic team.

The Celtics blew a three-point lead in the final three seconds agianst the Hawks that nearly mirrored a near meltdown against New Orleans last weekend.

BOSTON — On a possession two minutes into the first quarter Friday night, the Boston Celtics didn’t even attempt to disguise their intentions against the Orlando Magic. With a small forward guarding Kristaps Porziņģis, Boston went straight into a pick-and-roll with Derrick White and his 7-foot-2 teammate.
