BOSTON — The Celtics will be down two starters in Sunday’s matchup against the Wizards, with Kristaps Porzingis and Jayson Tatum both sitting.
Porzingis was a late scratch, added to the injury report just an hour before the game with a non-COVID illness. He’s missed 37 games so far this season, the majority of which have been due to an offseason ankle surgery ( and dealing with an illness that kept him out the first half of March. It’s not known if Porzingis’s illness on Sunday is connected to the illness he suffered last month.
