The Celtics will be down their starting center Kristaps Porzingis for the fourth straight game as well on Saturday night due to illness. Al Horford will start in his place. Jrue Holiday will be back in the lineup for Boston after missing the last three games with a finger injury.
Thomas recently signed with the Salt Lake City Stars, the G League affiliate of the Utah Jazz, and is averaging 29.6 points and 5.6 assists in 11 games
"Perhaps moving Al Horford ... for a switchy wing like Cody Martin or Royce O'Neale might make some sense," suggests B/R. We disagree.
Despite suggesting on social media that he would play vs. the Lakers, Kristaps Porzingis was ruled out for the fifth straight game.
During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Craig wore only jersey No. 12 and put up 2.5 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks per game.
He was so dedicated to winning that he'd think years ahead in the draft, and defied the prejudiced social mores of his era to integrate the sport.
