BOSTON -- Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla said Kristaps Porzingis will play in Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Monday night.

"He's available," Mazzulla said. "Expecting to see him play tonight."

Mazzulla had said Porzingis was "not quite ready" after he was made active for Game 4 and that he would be available in only specific situations in that game.

Ahead of Game 5, however, Mazzulla said Porzingis had progressed beyond that point and should be on the court. He added that Porzingis won't be on a minutes restriction.
