Boston Celtics star big man Kristaps Porzingis played limited minutes throughout the team's second-round series with the New York Knicks. He only exceeded 20 minutes once in six games before the Knicks eliminated the Celtics Friday in a dominant 119-81 win.
In Friday's Game 6, Porzingis came off the bench and logged just 11 minutes, scoring four points along with five rebounds and a block shot. He missed eight games in March due to a viral illness. Last week, ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania reported that Porzingis was still dealing with side effects from that same illness, which has cause energy zaps and his stamina having ebbs and flows over the past couple months. After Celtics' season came to a close, Porzingis opened up about what he's going through.
