BOSTON — “KP” chants broke out in the third quarter of Wednesday’s game between the Celtics and the Orlando Magic after Kristaps Porzingis took an elbow to the face from Magic center Goga Bitadze.
Bitadze appeared to immediately apologize to Porzingis, who lay on the floor with blood gushing out of his head. Luke Kornet motioned for the Celtics' medical staff to check on Porzingis, and they immediately wrapped his head in a towel.

Still dripping blood, Porzingis grinned and quickly exited to the locker room, hyping up the Celtics fans on his way out.
