Celtics’ Kristaps Porziņģis to miss Game 5 with right calf strain
Boston Celtics big man Kristaps Porziņģis will miss Game 5 after MRI results confirmed the 7-foot-2 center suffered a right calf strain in the team’s Game 4 win over the Miami Heat. Porziņģis was injured late in the second quarter of Boston’s eventual 102-88 win Monday to go up 3-1 in the series. On the play he was injured, Porziņģis appeared to tweak his calf upon catching a pass and starting to drive to his left. He hobbled off the court after the non-contact injury and didn’t return to action. He was later seen wearing a walking boot on his right foot after the game.
