Kristaps Porzingis Ruled Out For Sunday Afternoon
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (quadriceps) won't play on Sunday afternoon against the Warriors. He has missed 15 games this season already, so fantasy managers are hardly surprised by the latest update.

Kristaps Porzingis Uncertain For Sunday
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (quadriceps) is questionable for Sunday's game against the visiting Warriors.

With Boston owning the best record in the National Basketball […]

When Gravity Won: The Worst NBA Slam Dunk Contests Of All Time
The 2024 NBA Slam Dunk contest is now officially behind us, and once again, it was pretty meh.

The 25-year-old amassed 20 points, nine boards, and seven assists in Wednesday's win over the Atlanta Hawks. However, he had trouble finding the bottom of the net from behind the arc, going 2-for-13. Perhaps his current illness was the culprit. […]
Jayson Tatum Dealing With An Illness On Friday
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (illness) is listed as questionable for the team's Friday night game against the Washington Wizards.
