A Celtics team already playing without an injured Jayson Tatum had another scare on Wednesday against the Magic after Kristaps Porzingis was left bloodied on the parquet floor.
The Celtics’ big man had to leave Boston’s Game 2 matchup against the Orlando Magic in the third quarter after taking an elbow to his forehead, courtesy of Orlando’s Goga Bitadze.
Bitadze — who was ejected from a game against Boston in December after getting tangled up with Porzingis — was fighting for a loose ball with under a minute to go in the third quarter while he caught Porzingis clean in the head.
